It’s been a while where occasionally on turning on the pi, 1 of the controllers doesn’t connect/get reconized properly. I have to either reboot the system or re-plug the controller for it to get noticed.

YOu say re-plug which suggests its just a wired USB but then you say ‘doesn’t get recognized properly’ which suggests the controller itself is giving some kind of power indication?
If its occasionally is it always in the same USB port it fails? Does it fail on all of them?
have you also checked the JS inputs? Perhaps if it is recognized but you cannot use it its because its not on the index you are expecting.
2x wired xbox360 rock candy controllers, there always in the same ports i don’t unplug them. The lights on them are still flicker but occasionally 1 of em doesn’t (respond) and it’s always controller 1. They are both brand new controllers.
As for checking the JS inputs i have not, is it possible the controller occasionally gets registered as something different which does not have an input yet?
Edit: it just happened again, turns out it’s being recognized as a Harmonix xbox360 controller, is there any way to force it to stay as a generic xbox 360 controller?

/dev/input/by-id
to find out what inputs you have.I would first check there (you can also probably just
ls -l /dev/input/js
and then tab to see the numbers. you could then run jstest on the input and hit buttons on your pad to see if they are recognised (should change from off to on).e.g.
jstest /dev/input/js0
You’ll have to check the js inputs you have. I would start with that and see where they are and if any are recognised.
I did js0 and js1 and got a result of
js0 = Generic Xbox controller
js1 = Harmonix Xbox 360 ControllerNot really sure why since it’s the same controller? Do you think it probably due to it not being supported?
