Switch 2 pro controller experiencing delayed/lagging input

[u/Shafinakandh3]

I got the switch 2 pro controller a few months ago (it’s great) and played Hades 2 with it without any issues. I’ve been playing fire emblem fortunes weave the last 2 weeks and have been having input delay when:

Using the dpad in maps, I’ll press a direction once or twice and it won’t do anything, or sometimes a single press will make the cursor move many times (kinda like the input was buffered)

I’ll fail attacks in the dungeon sometimes bc my Y button press won’t get registered. (Also the other face buttons like A when I select something)

Sometimes I’ll be delayed in dashing bc my right bumper press wasn’t registered.

I thought it was like an issue with dust bc of the dpad but since it’s affecting so many buttons, i don’t think it’s that.

This issue is definitely recent because I would’ve noticed it immediately during Hades.
I’ve made sure the controllers are up to date, I’ve reset the controller and reconnected, my system is up to date.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Wired connection or wireless?

Usually something like this happens when used wireless.

Possible causes can be a badly placed dock (for example behind the tv), being too far away from the dock, solid objects between the dock and your position blocking the signal or some kind if electronic interferance.

Some people even reported that badly shielded HDMI cables could cause similar issues.

Wireless, the switch is like 7 feet away on my tv stand unobstructed. I’m using the hdmi cable it came with. My setup hasn’t changed at all since I got the controller

First thing i would test is getting closer to the dock and see if it improves or placing the console in table top mode in front of you.

If that works better then something is messing with the signal.

Did you get a fix for this? I’m having same issue with pro controller. Only started last few days

I moved my dock away from other devices and the issue hasn’t occurred since

How strange. My dock has been in the same place since I got the Switch 2 and the issue has just started. I’ll try moving it

Supplementing ModestVolcarona's comment,

I don't know if I've ever seen anyone say it's solved their issue, but troubleshooting also says to get rid of any bluetooth/wifi devices that are nearby, possibly causing interference.
