I'm having issues with my Stadia and associated bluetooth controllers. With some games such as sponge Bob, life is strange, and deliver us the moon, I'm unable to get controller input to start the game. Contoller works to bring up the Stadia menu but I unable to play those games.
If I exit into another Stadia game I have full control.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
First, thank youbfor the follow up. I found my issue. I have 3 ps4 Controllers and my Stadia app on my NVIDIA shield thinks there are ghost controllers for each physical controller.
I found an article with the same issue here.

I unpaired each ps4 controller and paired my 1 stadia controller. Game controls work. However, I lose my ability to use my ps4 Controllers on my gforce now. Unless I keep pairing and unpaired to play stadia games.
Since I'm playing on a shield and use gforce now, I'm thinking on ways to keep stadia.
I can safely say I found the issue. I unpaired all the controllers to my Nvidia Shield. Then paired one ps4 controller. While it shows up as one controller in my Nvidia shield settings, it showed up as two on the stadia controller settings.
When trying to play selected games on stadia, I assume it thinks the ghost controller is controller 1 of 2. So I'm unable to contoll certain games. If I remove the ps4 controller and the. Pair either the stadia controller or steel, then it works as intended.
Hi @J3rr3l8104
Sorry to hear about your controller issues - that is a really weird glitch that is taking place with only those games. One quick question - which way are you playing Stadia? On Chrome, mobile device, Chromecast Ultra, Google TV, etc? Also - have you tried a controller hardware reset? This is usually the one troubleshooting steps that fixes most bugs.
Hope this helps!
I'm using Stadia via a NVIDIA Shield. It is weird since it only happens on certain games. I did a controller reset. It occurs with my shield controller and ps4 Controllers.
Hey @J3rr3l8104,
Thanks for letting us know about your issue. I agree with @MrVacca that it's pretty strange that it's only happening with some games. I'd like to ask a couple more follow up questions to see if we can potentially narrow down exactly what might be going on here.
Keep us posted with how it's going when you can. We'd love to help you get to the bottom of this and get back to enjoying Stadia to its fullest!
Best,
James

Just purchased a set of steelseries controllers to see if they fix the ghost issue.
