In theory, this may solve the de-sync issue with the new Series X controllers. On Windows 10, I discovered that the installed drivers for the dongle were dated 7/11/2017, when the newest available were dated 7/18/2018. Windows was reporting the older driver as the latest because it has a higher version number (1.0.46.1 vs 1.0.45.5). Forcing the driver update corrected the de-sync behavior in Windows.

I'm not sure if my de-sync issue (described here) is the same as the one that this PR attempts to fix, but it did not fix the issue for me. The controller works just as it did before, with the brief de-sync if left idle for too long (~30s). One difference I did notice with this PR: the indicator light on the dongle no longer lights up when the connection is working. |

This corresponds with my experience as well. Too bad, I thought it might be an easy fix. |
