Description
I'm playing on a steam deck hooked up to a TV with a ps5 controller and I'm finding it a bit annoying that the button hints are for the steam deck layout, there is no option to override the controller type at all
Also my PS5 controller gets detected as a steam deck controller.
And beta 2.0.0 completely doesnt detect controllers on 1.20.1 for me so I'm using beta 1.7.0

Research direction
Start with issue #282 by reproducing the reported setup: Steam Deck connected to a TV with a PS5 controller, comparing beta 1.7.0 and 2.0.0 on Minecraft 1.20.1. Trace controller detection and button-hint selection, then verify that the controller can be identified correctly, its button layout can be overridden, and controller input still works in the affected version.
