      I cannot get a Switch Pro controller to work over USB. Has anyone else?

      I did follow the directions here:
      https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Nintendo-Switch-Controllers/

      Is there a way I can test the HID driver works?

      Thanks,

        I use a Pro Controller with the Pi thanks to those instructions. It works wired and wireless.

        Did you have any error messages while installing either the HID module or the userspace driver?
        How are the lights on the controller behaving when you connect the cable? Do they start blinking "side to side" quickly? If they do, did you press L + R to pair?
