Symptoms

The game works in general, but my controller isn't functioning.
I'm using an old PS3 controller, but this issue is identical on a PS4 controller.
Normally I have to set the game "CONTROLLER" settings to "Disable Steam input". This should make proton to emulate my PS3 controller as a Xbox360 controller and everything should be fine.
With this game, a Xbox360 controller is detected from what is shown in the main menu, but no input works.
I installed this game in Lutris with their lutris-6.0 wine version and controls work as they should.

Reproduction

This issue happens each time I launch the game as described under "Symptoms".

It would be interesting to know if users with other controllers have the same issue or if this is related to my PS3 controller.

Start with the attached steam-1069530.log and the listed Proton 6.3-1 system details, then compare controller behavior with the lutris-6.0 Wine run. No source file or test is named; done means reproducing the failure and establishing a verified controller-input fix or documented cause.
