    As far as I know, it can only connect SD through xinput, you can test which kind of input it is.

        Steam Deck Connection

          1. Update your Steam Deck to the latest version.
          1. Connect the controller to your Steam Deck in Xinput mode to play.     
        • There’s a switch button on the back of the controller. And you don’t need to use the adapter.

    Did you have it working previously and now it isn’t? I use the 2.4Ghz dongle exclusively, never even bothered trying bluetooth. I did find that my placement was not great though, so first time I tried using it, it was horribly laggy/unresponsive. Turned out I had it too near other interference, popped the dongle in the charging cradle and moved that to the front of my setup and no further problems.
