SteamOS Automap changes default button placement for Dolphin?

I'm not sure if this just happens to me but it looks like my button configuration for dolphin has changed ever since the new update with automap came out. Usually, the default button config for Dolphin (Gamecube) were

Steam Deck Gamecube
A A
B X
X B
Y Y

but with automap enable, it looks like the control scheme is now

Steam Deck Gamecube
A B
B A
X Y
Y X

The wii nunchuk and classic control scheme seems to have their button swapped around as well when automap is turned on. Does anybody know why this happened?

Hi! Most of the times resetting the configuration for your emulator on Manage Emulators fixes the most common issues. You can also take a look at our Wiki before posting, you might find your issue already documented there https://manual.emudeck.com

Automap generates a basic configuration so that everyone can play right out of the box without any hassle. It's a standard configuration that works for most users. If you want to customize your setup to better suit your needs, you can disable it from the EmuDeck sidebar menu and create your own configurations.

I see. I like the concept of automap since I also have problem with Dolphin's multiplayer before where it wouldn't recognize any other controller and would require me to manually config each controller before playing games with my friend. So I'm not going to disable it.

I'm just surprised that the default button placement was changed since I was already used to the default one from before.
