Hi, welcome to the forums!
Have you tried this?

Unfortunately, Razer Game Booster starts programs is it set to turn off (even if they weren't running to begin with) when returning to regular mode. So after playing a game and returning to Windows, this software for the XBox controller started (which makes AC4 default to the controller and ignore the keyboard). Disabling or shutting down the software for a gamepad/joystick might help you.Originally Posted by gabesellers Go to original post
There should be an option to select which controller you want to use (currently, there doesn't seem to be). Anyway, I hope this helps.
