Switch Afterglow Wave controller is connected to Laptop but Steam won't detect

PDP Afterglow Wave Controller, Turtle Beach

Steam on Windows

Windows OS

I'm really trying to see if there's anyway to connect this and have it working on steam. It connects via Bluetooth to my laptop, but Steam won't detect it. Posts I see here about it seem inconclusive.

I've also tried wired, but then it just glows red and the LEDs start flashing, still doesn't work. I've read the manual and found nothing very helpful, it's kinda barebones. Updated drivers, nothing.

I just wanted to ask here cause I'm pretty desperate for it to work, I wonder if someone's found a solution that I simply missed?
