dualshock 4 on Arch (self.linux_gaming)

I can't get my DualShock 4 controllers to work on Arch without ds4drv. I am pretty sure this method isn't required anymore, because the dualshock 4 work just fine on NixOS. What am I missing? Do I need to load modules? Specific kernel or Bluetooth package? I am running the latest zen kernel with Nvidia. Same hardware as my old NixOS.
