I connect Stadia controller to my phone (Pixel 3) with USB-C. In the controller screen it says the controller is linked. I can move in the menu screen with the controller, choosing games to start.
However, when game start and it requires "Push Any Button" or "Press A to start", it doesn't respond at all when I press buttons.
I had no problem connecting Stadia Controller and my phone before. I did it and played the game with the same USB-C cord and controller to my same phone.
I tried to factory reset the controller but still same.
I appreciate any help. I want to play Stadia outside of my home, but I cannot do it because I cannot connect my controller wired.
Okay I found the solution thanks to a friendly person on reddit. You have to turn off accessibility settings, specifically the accessibility menu.
This is really bad, Especially because Google is supposed to be so accessibility friendly. They need to fix this ASAP!
I'm having the exact same issues!
... but by migrating to new Pixel 5 those issues are gone. ![]()
I'm having the same issue on the pixel 4 XL.
Are you plugging your controller into your phone while the controller is off and then turning it on? Give that a try.
Also did you try uninstalling/re-installing the app?
Thank you for your suggestion.
I tried connecting controller to my phone when controller was off but it did not work. By connecting phone to the controller, it initiate the controller power on automatically. Same as before, I could use controller on the menu screen but not in-game.
I uninstalled the Stadia App from my cell phone and installed again. Also this method did not work.
Although it did not solve the problem, I really apricate your help!
@JI I know it has been a few days but are you still having issues? If so try having a chat with google support and let us know what solution you both come up with.
Thank you for the suggestion. Yes, I guess I should try co contact google support at this point. Thank you again for the link to the support!
If you get an answer for support let me know. I contacted them on Thursday and they suggested all the steps I already tried. They suggested I use WiFi controller support or another brand of phone until they get back to me, which aren't viable options for me.
I'll let you know if they find a solution for me, but it's looking like an app issue on pixels.
Thank you for sharing the information. I will definitely post solution if I get it.

It worked!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing the information!!
You are so right about this problem is very bad for the platform! I hope they would fix this problem!!
Thank you so much again!
Which accessibility options? Do you mean system settings on the phone or something else? Also could I have the link to the Reddit thread?
I turned off "Select to Speak" under Accessibility menu then worked.
You can access Accessibility menu from Setting menu of your phone.
I hadn't turned on any other options, so you can turn off if you had turned on any other options.
I didn't find the Reddit post, so I am not sure which post. I am sorry....
Hi @Austin314, can you maybe copy and paste the solution here? The link you posted won't work for me for some reason 🤷![]()
Thank you so much this solved my same problem!
Thank you so much! I was really discouraged about buying Stadia a few months back because the whole reason I got it was to play on the go. I had looked everywhere for a solution and this one finally worked. I really appreciate it!
I am so glad posting my question helped! I am so thankful to everyone in the community who helped to solve this problem!
it worked for me, thanks

I hope they fix it!
