PayPalValve continue their rapid iteration on improvements and fixes to Steam and the Steam Controller, with a fresh Beta update out.
This was release on May 28th, and since it's in a Beta you need to opt-in, eventually it will roll out to everyone - like we just had the big stable update only recently.
Here's all the changes:
General
- Fixed an issue with joystick LEDs not working correctly on Legion Go in some cases.
Steam Controller Firmware
- Added support for dimming the LED via settings in Steam.
- Reduced internal deadzoning on the lower-range of the triggers.
Steam Input
- Added support for dimming the Steam Controller's LED.
- Fixed some cases where returning to the "Edit Layout" screen from changing a binding or navigating from the "Preview" layout view could focus the wrong input.
- Ship a potential workaround for an issue on Linux where gamepad emulation would break for Steam Controllers.
Remote Play
- Fixed doubled input when the Steam Controller is connected via a puck.
For those of you with the new Steam Controller - what are you hoping Valve tweak or add for it next? Leave a comment with your thoughts.

Waiting to get my replacement controller since GLS "lost" (or just stole) the previous one...
Imagine if this happened with a steam machine or frame...GLS sucks!
