Running d2r through steam to allow switch pro controller support no longer working

I have been using steam big picture to run d2r because it allows switch pro controller support though PC. As of the update, opening the game through steam will no longer allow a connection through bnet to access online characters. Is this a part of the update? Will switch pro controllers ever be supported through PC? Opening the d2r exe directly from the folder allows connection to bnet characters, but opening the same exe thru steam now shows no bnet characters, although it still opens the game.

did you find a solution for this? I want to unlock my fps with controller play. it is locked to 65 fps.
how can you play with a controller and getting 120 fps?
