How to change Default Controller Type for Link (Big Picture Mode)

[theflyguy]

I've purchased Star Wars Battlefront in Store nearby, and now want to play it over Steam Link on my TV. No Problem to add the Game to my Library in Steam, but in Big Picture Mode there is this Keyboard Icon on the Picture of the Game, meaning that this Game should be played with Mouse and Keyboard (in contrast to some other Games in my Steam Library where there is a Gamepad Icon by default). Of course Battlefront may also be played with a Gamepad, and that's how I want to play it on TV. But even when I start the Steam Link and the Game with an X-Box Controller attached to the Steam Link, the Game always behaves as only a Keyboard and Mouse would be connected.

When I start the Game directly on my PC (without Steam) a Gamepad (if present) is automatically recognized and used by default.

So is there a way to tell Steam that I want to play this Game with a Gamepad by default, so that it shows up with the Gamepad Icon in my Library?
