Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
Controller: "Logic3 Victrix Pro BFG Wireless Controller for Xbox"
I have a controller with extended buttons, but Steam Input does not let me enable them.
I have the option to toggle them ON/OFF, but the switch always swaps to OFF as soon as I do any edits or even just close the window.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Connect your controller
  2. Open and enable Steam Input
  3. Enable Extended buttons
  4. Either edit your buttons or close the window.
  5. If you return from editing or reopen the Steam Input window, the switch for extended buttons will be turned OFF

I have seen some fixes for 8BitDo controllers, but I don't know if said fixes could be applicable and I wanted to be safe. I am not too savvy with Linux.
