In short, I've already tried several options and still faced issues. After receiving some polite but unhelpful comments from the Linux community, I'm choosing to post here to find someone who might know how to make the 1914 Xbox One controller (with USB-C) function on Linux. I won't be purchasing a Bluetooth adapter, as using it would add unnecessary delay and cost. If that's the only viable path, I'll stick with Windows.

From what I understand, the only support for the Xbox Wireless Adapter appears to be limited. You might need to create it yourself if you received it differently—it could lack the necessary firmware. Currently, the device is in a restricted maintenance phase, so the developer has limited time to address issues. The particular controller is also noted as untested; without it working with Xbox, you may be stuck with only Bluetooth or wired options.

Edit: A report indicates compatibility with Xbox: https://github.com/medusalix/xow/issues/140 Updated December 10, 2021 by Nayr438

It seems you're facing challenges with Windows 10. You might wait for updates or consider moving to Linux once support ends.

Consider refreshing the controller settings in the Xbox Accessories app on Windows via USB. This method has worked for both wired and wireless controllers when detecting them under Linux.

I completed this task earlier since it was causing Windows Explorer issues.

After four months, I share that simply updating the joystick's firmware via Windows "Xbox Accessories" makes it function flawlessly on Linux, eliminating the requirement for any changes in kernel 5.20.x. The Xbox Joystick model I own is 1914.
