Xbox Series controller working in menu on steam, but not in game. Specifically Farming Simulator 22.

I have tried forums, settings changes, YouTube, and bluetooth and wired controllers. Can anyone help me with getting my controller to work on this game? I have the 2020 13" MacBook Pro with a M1 chip. Thank you in advance.

Ventura cannot detect my Thrustmaster usb joystick So, I’m developing this game in Unity on my MBP M1 Pro and Ventura (13.2.1) and want to test it with different joysticks and gamepads. Sofar I’ve got it working with xBox controllers and some Sony PS4 controllers. Today I bought the simplest Thrustmaster USB joystick, no drivers needed, just plug and play. But it won’t show up on Game Controllers in System settings. Unity can’t find it either. One would think that anything connected with a usb cord would at least be detected. Can anyone of you gurus point me in the right direction for fixing this issue? Thank you so much.
