Controller getting stuck on "button" widget but not "button_quiet"

Summary

If there are no button_quiet widgets on screen, then the button first highlighted when a menu appears will be a button widget, if this is the first highlighted button then the controller will not be able to navigate to other buttons until pressing select.

Can confirm im experiencing this too. When you open a menu with just buttons in it, controllers cannot navigate without an initial click which is undesirable.

Swapping to button_loud fixed the issue for me so the issue is clearly with just ‘button‘
