So I have found a consistent workaround for this issue, thanks to a Mac user (they seem to be having similar problems with more controllers). Specific to the Stadia controller: have the controller turned off when you run RPCS3. Go to Pads and set your keyboard as your controller, and check the bindings so that you can d-pad in game. Run the game you want to play (For game collections like HD Metal Gear use the keyboard to select the game you want to play in the collection). Once you hit the game main menu of the specific game you want to play, you can turn on the Stadia controller, and then go to Pads again and switch your controller back to SDL (I haven't had any issues with it not detecting my controller at this point). it should be good for that play session after all that.
When I was trying to research the problem on my own it seemed like maybe the SDL controller support is a chunk of code maintained by some other group, and that might be the problem. In which case, I can understand why the RPCS3 team hasn't fixed it, cause it's not their code. but I'm not a programmer and github is nearly incomprehensible to me so it'd be great to get some sort of response here. A "hey you'll have to wait on the SDL team to fix this issue" or even a "stop asking about this it's not our code" would be helpful at this point.
