roblem playing Magicka 2 with Xbox 360 controllers on steam link

[Latulium]

I know this topic has been gone over multiple times, but i still could not find a solution for myself. When i play Magicka 2 on my PC and have a Xbox controller connected via bluetooth, it shows the normal spell wheel and every function in the game works as intended. However when have the controller connected to my steam link, and play it on that, it shows it as i'd play with a steam controller in the HUD. This means i cannot use some of the spells, nor can i do most of the other interactions.

I tried:

-unchecking the Xbox Controller Profile Support, BUT it was not activated in the first place, and playing around with it does not change anything either.

-using a custom community made controller setup. This let me atleast use the other spells, BUT the HUD still remained unchanged, showing the steam controller options, and i could still not use some functions.

-starting the game via desktop and not in Big Picture. Did not change a thing.

Is there any way i can get a normal Xbox HUD when i play the game on steam link?

The official controller config for Magicka 2 is made specifically for the steam controller. Switching to the Gamepad template should fix it.

Make sure you have Xbox Controller Profile support enabled, then go to Controller_configuration>Browse Configs>Templates>Gamepad
