OS X controller issues: RT and RS "disappeared" (+ also some keyboard keys "missing")

So here's the thing.. On OS X (el capitan) I turned on Steam controller management, and tried playing the game - it suddenly became usable with the controller, yay...

However, I soon realized the fix is only partial. The problem being, the "RT" (right trigger) and "RS" (right stick click) in-game inputs don't seem to work. If I map something else (like X or A) onto either the right stick or the right trigger, it works, and if I map these inputs onto any other button on the gamepad, it doesn't work...

So the issue doesn't seem to be in the controller... but anyway it's a Bluetooth XBox One controller.

(ps. Also, the icons for the A and B buttons are reversed in the controller setup page...)

Further stuff: While setting up a Steam controller profile to work around this problem, I noticed something else. Many non-alphanumeric keys from the keyboard (or from the Steam controller profile, when emulating keypresses) fail to register. Ctrl and Tab are included in this, but also the arrow keys and all other "modifier" keys such as Shift, Alt and Cmd.

Hey dood, could we get your specs and screenshots/video of this? It would really help the devs!

Hey :) Sorry I was otherwise occupied. :D I just upgraded to Sierra so I'll try to replicate it.

Anyway it was OS X 10.11, with a bluetooth XBox Slim controller, on an early 2011 Macbook Pro with Radeon graphics, Steam gamepad drivers (in "big picture mode") turned on, otherwise completely vanilla everything. When I'd press a controller button that was mapped to RT or RS, nothing happened. I worked around it by mapping those to keyboard events, and setting those up for the actions I needed.

Once I get my new system set up I'll try again and try to record something for you.

Alright, the issue still persists, I caught it on video, so how should I get it over to you? :) I'll edit it down in iMovie, but I'm unsure what's the best route to get something that's still probably several tens of Megs over to you.

Hey there dood, we usually look at uploaded youtube videos, or sometimes a google drive link. But it's all good, the developers are working on a fix for this now!
