Reconnecting steam controller (ps4 controller) creates another controller in devices list

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

I’m using Steam’s input translation for a PS4 controller. Disabling and re-enabling a controller through Steam, or unplugging and re-plugging the controller, creates a new controller profile in the devices list resulting in an endless list of profiles that conflict with each other. This doesn’t occur if I don’t use Steam’s controller override.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you?

It occurs every time I reconnect the controller.
