I believe I have found the issue, after some research and testing it turned out to be the low polling rates controllers use.


・ The Issue: The DualShock4 and the DualSense controllers use 250hz polling rate by default and Steam unfortunately doesn't let you increase it.

This is incorrect.

DualShock 4 uses 250 Hz HID report rate in USB, up to 500 Hz in Bluetooth.
DualSense is 1000 Hz in USB, highly variable in Bluetooth (usually ~250 Hz, but I've seen it fluctuate all the way up to 500 Hz under heavy HID output report load).

I'm not sure where you're getting your information from.

・ Short Term Solution: Apps like DS4Windows and JoyShockMapper let you increase the polling rate up to 1000hz and this fixes the issue. Use two apps together, Steam for regular inputs and JoyShockMapper for gyro. JSM also has more options for tweaking gyro.


・ Long Term Solution: Valve, please let us change the polling rate :)

But by the same token, the last thing anyone needs is Steam doing even more manipulation to DualShock and DualSense controllers. They already handhshake them out of their normal simplified report mode in Bluetooth, causing all DirectInput software to break.

Use a third-party utility that you can turn on/off, don't encourage Valve to add even more undefeatable breakage to the DRM client people are required to run in order to play games.

Thanks for the information, all.

Thanks to your help, I was able to reproduce the problem, and narrowed it down to an optimization we were making for different individual components of a controller. The side effect was that smoothing code was not being run at a fixed rate - only at the same rate as packet updates.

There should be a fix in the next update.

I think this issue has popped back up. Using my DS4 with bluetooth on my steam deck, when I use gyro as mouse it is very choppy, as if it's updating at a low framerate.

I have noticed this issue ever since the steam controller. For gyro it was fixed when they released the 'gyro to mouse' but the trackpad still had a stutter feel. But now it seems to be stuttery again even with the gyro to mouse mode.

Here's the comparison I made when the gyro to mouse mode was working:
