@Chiivo
The app is most likely disconnecting and reconnecting the controller or making it connect as another device through the process the moment that happens the device is not passed back through or not as the fully same device so apps fail.
This is similar to things like VR and boom microphones
Could you pass through a USB port or a hub instead of the device itself?
