PS5 D-pad not working correctly

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE:

The D-pad on the PS5 controller does not function properly in DbD. All of the PS5 controller buttons are pressure sensitive, but they also have hard press settings as well. It appears that the coding for the D-pad is using the pressure sensitive values to detect a press instead of using the hard press settings. This causes the wrong D-pad button to trigger in the game if you don't hit the button dead center.

For example, if I have something set to trigger with the right arrow, and you press down and forward on the right arrow, the up arrow is triggered instead. If you press down and towards you, the down arrow will trigger instead. This issue only appears to happen in DbD, as I can't replicate the issue in any other game, or on the PS5 menus.

PLATFORM: PS5

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED:

  1. Bind the right arrow to something.
  2. While playing the game, press down on the right arrow button, but also slightly push the button forward.
  3. Most of the time this will cause whatever is bound to the up arrow to trigger.
  4. The same with the down arrow triggering, will happen if you press down and towards you.

This was happening a LOT while playing 2v8, and I thought my controller was bad, so I bought a new one. The new one was even worse, as it is more rigid. This is only happening because you are using the pressure values, not the hard pressed button trigger.
