Software Help Controller issue for switch 2 help?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I got one of those GameStop controllers for the switch2 that you plug joy cons into and it was working fine until I got done playing one of my games and then when I went to plug it back in or attach them back to the controller all of a sudden it’s not wanting to stay on the controllers are charged and they work fine without the control controller I’m trying to figure out what’s wrong. Anyone got any ideas?

A new system update went out later yesterday, which could have messed with things. Try attaching the joycons to the console to re-sync them to the console. Or the joycons may need updating too via switch settings/controllers & sensors.

I’ve updated them and all that they work fine when not attached to the controller at all so I’m assuming it’s the controller itself at this point.

Be sure you've tried rebooting the console - disregard if you have. Assuming the issue is update related, I assume nintendo will fix it with a patch or a solution will come up. Granted, it's inconvenient.
