Apparently my Ducky RGB keyboard is detected as a virtual gamepad. It shows up as a gamepad in Steam and there seems to be no way to disable it. The game I've been trying to play detects it as a gamepad which causes controls to not work properly. Is there a way to permanently disable this feature? I've been resisting the temptation to throw my computer in a lake and run away to live in the forest. This has been a massive pain in the ass to deal with.

Edit: I found this Reddit thread of someone with the same issue but nobody seems to have a solution.

Edit 2: Problem solved. I updated the keyboard's firmware and it works as you'd expect now.
