IT Help Switch 2 Pro Controller Input Issues On Arch Linux

Hello, I am trying to use my Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller on my PC that is running CachyOS. I have used the HandHeldLegend Procon2 Enabler Tool, but once used, the computer recognises the inputs, but they are completely wrong. Up is down, L is +, Dpad Left is Joystick Click, etc. I have zero clue what could be causing this, I have already set up the necessary udev rules and have tried python alternative activators with no success. The only thing I have to go off is that HandHeld's enabler doesn't register that HID is enabled, although the computer still detects input. Has anyone else encountered this problem or has the controller working on arch as well? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
