I have been using an Xbox USB plugged controller on my PC to play games. Until now, I have had no issues with it through various games.
A few days ago (Aug. 31), I was playing Minecraft for some time without any sort of problem until I died in the game. When I went to pick up my items and to place some blocks, I realized that I was not able to. After many tests and resets, I realized that it was the LT button, only on Minecraft, that did not work. If I changed the binding to a different button, I was able to use it as the LT replacement.
I have tried Minecraft on my Switch, and the LT button works there fine in the same world with the Switch controller I have.
Some things that I have done to try and fix this:
Reset the game.
Checked game for any updates but no new updates are available and there was no update during that time that may have changed something.
Tried it on a different version of the game.
Tried to re-bind the LT button, but the game does not show it as active/recognize it whenever I press it to bind it.
Checked to see if it was the physical controller by playing other games, but the LT button works fine in those games.
Checked and updated any controller drivers.
Controller is up to date per the update check.
Checked for any Windows updates but everything is up to date.
Reset calibration/settings in the controller.
Unplugged and plugged in the controller.

Hello,
Unfortunately, this is still an issue. As of now, I just use the LB button as my LT button instead and cycle through my hotbar when I need something to the left.

Is this still an issue as of 1.21.2?
