When I opt controllers in using Steam Input via Steamworks, the OSX build of our game starts dropping inputs, while the Windows build runs just fine. Seems to be some internal fighting between Steam and SDL.

Picture attached of the option I'm talking about.

Both versions use the same version of gamecontrollerdb. Turning off Steam Input allows the OSX build to run as expected.

Austin, can you look at this or pass it on to Mike?
