Description

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

I've set up motion controls on my steam deck and control the cursor with my mouse. When setting the motion controlled pointer to disabled, it works fine, but if i hold the console upright, the pointer is no longer controllable. I'm not exactly sure if this is an actual problem with the emulator or if this is something i could override, but id like to be able to freely use motion controls without sacrificing using the mouse as the pointer.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Mapping the Motion Input accelerometer with DSUClient on steam deck, and mapping the Motion Simulation pointer as cursor Y-, cursor Y+, etc. Disable "Point" in the Motion Input tab.

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Yes 5.0-16520

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

Yes 5.0

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

I'm using a 256gb Steam Deck

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

I've attached my controller config and a video demonstrating the issue.
