Darn, I don't have a dance mat0 :/ Silly approach but output dancemat to keystrokes? I have made some silly combinations work with AntiMicroX (https://github.com/AntiMicroX/antimicrox?tab=readme-ov-file) installed as flatpak.

Maybe helpful:

Bazzite comes with joydev, analog, and xpad, so just a cursory search has me believe this should work more or less out of the box (https://askubuntu.com/questions/33676/how-to-configure-an-usb-ddr-dance-pad-for-stepmania) but I acknowledge I have no way to test this. You might have to modprobe each module or add them to /etc/modules-load.d/ddr-pad.conf ...

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Good luck!

    I'm using a PSX mat with a PSX to USB adapter. I think that might be causing the problems. Stepmania detects it as 2 separate "Twin USB Joystick" but only the top buttons (start, select, X, O, and up arrow) respond in the input test. I did try adding it to steam and enabling steam controls, but that just adds 2 Xbox controllers to the existing list and stepmania still only sees input from the PSX ones. I did see it in input devices but I'm not experienced enough to know how to muck around with that.

    I think my best bet is to get a proper USB mat and hope that just works.
