PC Controller losing connection intermittently

[Puss_Kat]

I've had issues with Steam in the background causing my controller to switch input types. I don't play XIV on Steam but merely having Steam open at all has caused it.

Otherwise, every now and then in the FFXIV settings, it will swap from XBOX One Controller to XBOX 360 Controller under the settings menu and cause my controller to cut out. Swapping it back fixes it. No idea why it does this, thankfully it's not often.
