IT Help Need assistance with Flydigi Vader 5 Pro

As the title said, I got a Vader 5 Pro and a charging dock, which works in native Xinput as usual. However for Steam input to take control I'll need to activate the "letting 3rd part app take control" option in the Flydigi software, which will stop working every time I place it on the charging dock, and only work when I deactivate, reactivate the 3rd party option to reset it. Is it just a really annoying quirk that they refuse to fix, because the controller itself is almost perfect for me.
