Racing Wheel (PXN V10 Pro) unresponsive in-game (but works in Xbox Dashboard)

I’m having a specific issue with my racing wheel setup on Xbox. The wheel and buttons work perfectly while navigating the Xbox Home screen and browsing the game catalog, but the moment I launch a game, the wheel becomes completely unresponsive.

The Symptom:

• In Dashboard: Full navigation works.
• In-Game: No buttons or steering inputs register.
• The "Home" Button Test: If I press the Xbox button on the wheel while in-game, the Xbox Guide menu pops up and I can navigate that menu perfectly—but as soon as I go back to the game, it’s dead again.

My Connection Setup:

• Wheel Base to Controller: Connected via USB-C cable.
• Wheel Base to Console: Connected via USB-C to USB-A cable.

What I’ve Tried: I have followed the user manual and YouTube tutorials exactly, but none seem to cover this specific "unresponsive in-game" glitch.

Has anyone encountered this? Is there a specific boot-up sequence I should be following, or a setting within the Xbox to force the wheel as the primary input for games?
