Problems connecting bluetooth controllers about missioncontrol HOT 5 CLOSED

For the PS4 controller you have to hold share + ps Button to put the controller in pairing mode

from missioncontrol.

Can you show me the output of btdb.nro (included on the release page). I'm curious why your Switch Pro Controller isn't working. That kind of thing usually happens if the Switch can't read all of the things it wants to from it and doesn't complete the connection. It's possible the switch is making a request that I haven't seen before and don't handle. Any idea what firmware is running on the controller?

Try what @raginglazor suggested for the DS4 and it should work

Share + ps worked for the DS4
Updating the switch pro controller over a wired connection on my online sysnand didn't solve the other issue. How would I see which firmware version it is currently?
The btdb screenshot is attached.

I can see that you have a DS4 and Wii U Pro controller connected there. That last entry ca40:f938 is not an id that I have whitelisted. Either this is not an official controller, or you need to wipe your bluetooth database and re-pair the controller via bluetooth so that it stores the correct ID. A real Switch Pro should report 057e:2009

It is a real one.
Wiping the bluetooth devices again after the firmware update did the trick though. Now it shows up as 057e:2009 in btdb as well.
