What controller are you using with the Deck?
My pick after searching around is the 8BitDo Ultimate C (link) which is the cheaper version of the ultimate with no dock. So far, it's been working well for me. I just had to restart the Deck the first time after the pairing, since then, it recognize the device all the time.

I use Dual Shock 4s for all my PC gaming. They have all the features you'd expect, work with most apps and games (and there's DS4Windows for the rest), the bluetooth makes them great not only for something like the SteamDeck but also my phone, a friends iPad, ...
And the best thing is I can pick one up used for around 20โฌ.
And the touch pad works as a trackpad, controlling the mouse. Super useful for launching games and such in desktop mode.
