Hello, I recently started playing again using Shadow as I do not have a gaming PC. My first day on I took the time to set up all my key binds exactly as I have them on Xbox and everything worked fine. Yesterday however, I logged in to play and for some reason my controls are not working as expected. It is difficult to describe the issue I am having but I will do my best. So first, while sitting on the pad inside the station, none of the buttons on my controller do anything. Except for the start button which will open the game or pause menu. From there I can use the directional buttons to scroll however, pressing either up or down once results in the selection scrolling non stop and I have to exit the menu to get it to quit. At one point, and I don't know how, things started working as normal and I was able to outfit my ship and select a couple missions from the station. I launched and after exiting the station I open the galaxy map to plot my route and suddenly the controls are acting.. "whonkey" again. I have no idea what is going on or could be causing my issue. I do not have this issue with the other games I play and my best guess is it must a latency issue since I have playing on a VM but, then again I don't have latency issues with any other game.
Controls not working correctly on Controller

I've had this problem as well. It happened after an update to the Shadow client (hit me on Thursday morning), so I suspect they've done something with how the Shadow client is presenting the controller to the game. Certainly my controller isn't been seen as an Xbox controller anymore, game's just seeing a generic device (so copying a backup of my binds in doesn't work).
I took the time to recreate my binds, but:
a) If your controller isn't connected when you load the game, it's all lost again; and
b) however it's set up at the moment the game doesn't recognise multi-key binds correclty so things still aren't right. If I can work out what Shadow have done i'll post here.

Thank you. I hope we can figure this out.
I too have experienced the same issue but I play on GFN, only within the last few days.
I thought it was something I'd done but it appears that it's something else.

Same for me, in GFN. Weird thing is that the controller is working in main menu

Xbox One Controller, also BT. It’s kind of on and off with GFN for me, Sometimes everything works ok from start, sometimes I have to restart the whole GFN session before the controller actually is responsive in game (not only in main menu). Additionaly, somtetimes all bindings are gone, but not necessarily every time when the problem occurs, its really strange all in all. There already is a similar thread here already about GFN with this behavior, in the PC section.
