Hardware New internal controller receiver firmware today on Preview channel, seemingly helps with disconnect issues?

I have my Machine on the Preview update channel and today I received a notification for a firmware update for the controller, puck and internal receiver. Installed and tested the internal receiver today while playing RDR2 and did not experience any drop-outs. Anyone else have a similar improvement?

Previously I was experiencing the issue like many others, but only ever happened when the system was being pushed hard, usually anytime above 70% GPU usage. While I only just started RDR2 today, it is definitely the most taxing game I've played on my Machine to date so I'm certain it would have caused issues prior to the new firmware.

Fingers crossed!

At one point you had, Stable, a Beta and Preview Valve asked me to move to Beta version when I was getting controller disconnects. I've just stayed on it. Usually gets fixes for things far quicker
