Input flickering

Hello,

I am facing a singular bug with several games (especially with the Gamepass games, but others too).

Indeed, when I launch a game while I'm using Playnite in fullscreen mode, the input and hud are flickering, constantly changing the input between keyboard/mouse and controller. In Quake Remastered, Dishonored, the HUD is non stop flickering, so it's annoying. In other termes, it shows the "A" and  "B" button and in half a second, it then shows "space" or "escape", and vice versa. 

The thing is, I tried to launch the games by using the Xbox app to check if this is happening too, but it is not. But the weird thing, is the fact that the desktop mode of Playnite doesn't cause the issue.

It seems to be a Fullscreen mode bug. I also tried to disable the xinput option in Playnite, and in this case, even in the fullscreen mode, the issue is no more. But I can't use my controller to launch the game with the controller anymore.

I need you help to solve this annoying issue, thanks in advance!

Alt-tabbing out and back into a game usually fixes it.

Is this issue with GamePass/Xbox app games only?

For the most part, Yes. I only have one or two other games taht have the same problem. What's surprising is this issue only occurs whan launching games via Playnite's fullscreen mode, but never via the Xbox app or Playnite's Desktop mode !

That's because Desktop mode doesn't support game pad input in any way. Anyways, fix will be in next update, I'm unable to reproduce this on my system (even when testing those specific games) so I can't be sure it's 100% reliable, but it should not happen anymore.
