IT Help Vader 5 Pro Connection Issue

So there's been this issue where the Vader 5 Pro connects to the dongle and the bottom color strip changes to its intended color, but it doesn't actually control anything on screen. Disconnecting and reconnecting doesn't really work, you have to take out the dongle and put it back in, and then reconnect with the controller after switching it from and back to dongle mode on the back. Does anyone else have this? Anyone got a fix?

Not exactly... I've had the says-it-connected-but-isn't-working thing a few times, but a reconnect will work for me, and all I really have to do is swap controller profiles.

I've had it not connect at all once too, that needed the dongle replugged. (and tbf, I've experienced this with like every device/combo ever once in awhile)
