Impossible to walk slowly in Uncharted 4 using steamdeck controls. (sopuli.xyz)

I just started playing Uncharted 4 on my steamdeck and ran into a weird bug: when I move the left joystick slowly Nathan doesn't respond at all at first and once I reach a certain threshold he starts running immediately. In essence, I can't get him to do a slow walk animation. This is not a deadzone issue as when I quickly move the stick all the way to the end and then let it come back a bit he does a brief jog and then starts the walk animation. So the lower zone of the stick works but it's impossible to enter the walking animation from standing still. Interestingly, when I connect my Xbox controller and use that I don't have this issue at all and I can easily start a walk animation by pushing the left joystick gently. It's just impossible using the steamdeck controls. I played around with the deadzone settings but it didn't help and I'm convinced it's a bug rather than a deadzone problem.

There seems to be a few other people with this problem and without a solution (the same bug appears to be in Last of us part 1) but there aren't as many as I would have expected as it's quite an annoying bug. So it might be something unique to a few devices?

Has anyone else noticed this and found a solution?

Don't just tweak deadzones, you also want to tweak scaling on joysticks (how large numbers a given angle corresponds to)
