Issue connecting Xbox Controller

New virtualhere user here, and I'm testing it out on my laptop before buying a license and a new Pi for a more permanent setup. 

I'm trying to connect an Xbox one controller with the wireless adapter. It works just fine plugged in locally, and when connected remotely with virtualhere the adapter shows up, but no controllers will connect. Is there any additional steps I need to take to get it to work, or any log locations on the client/server to investigate further?

Can you try pressing the button on the wireless dongle to "wake it up" and then see if it will connect.

I installed the kernel drivers for the wireless adapter on my laptop, and now it's working.
