    I don't know if this is a bug or what. But it's never happened to me before.
    I'm using Unity 2020.3.21f1 and Input System 1.1.1.

    When I exit Play Mode and re-enter it, the gamepad is not working anymore.
    Sometimes it's being disconnected in the Input Debugger, but not all the time. I've tried hard-resetting it when it wasn't disconnected, but that changed nothing.
    The only fix is to restart Unity.

    I've tested this with an Xbox One and Switch Pro controller.

    Any insight on what might be going on?

    Same here.

    Using Unity 2021.3.3f1... When I open Unity the Input System recognizes the Gamepad just fine. After one hit at the Play button in the Editor it stops working, but it is recognized in the Windows>> Analysis >>> Input Debugger
