Thanks. The setting wasn't showing up at first, so I switched to Wayland.
It still wasn't showing up, so I disconnected and reconnected my controller. Then it appeared.
The box was unchecked, but the controller's touchpad still worked. I needed to check it, apply, and then uncheck it and apply again in order to turn off the touchpad.
I'm glad there's a way, although there are still some bugs that need to be worked out.
I’m glad you were able to get it working! I had no idea that was a Wayland-only setting, though of course in retrospect it makes perfect sense.
