Cannot read value of type 'float' from control

Question

I'm trying to map my Dual Shock 4 controller with the new input system, but I'm getting this error:

InvalidOperationException: Cannot read value of type 'float' from control '/DualShock4GamepadHID/leftStick' bound to action 'Gameplay/Movement[/Keyboard/w,/Keyboard/s,/Keyboard/a,/Keyboard/d,/DualShock4GamepadHID/leftStick,/DualShock4GamepadHID/leftStick,/DualShock4GamepadHID/leftStick,/DualShock4GamepadHID/leftStick]' (control is a 'StickControl' with value type 'Vector2')

The WASD keys works but my controller does not.

That is my script:

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.InputSystem;

public class CubeMovement : MonoBehaviour, PlayerControls.IGameplayActions
{
    private PlayerControls m_PlayerControls;
    private Vector2 m_Direction;
    [SerializeField] private float movementVelocity;

    private void Awake()
    {
        m_Direction = Vector2.zero;
        m_PlayerControls = new PlayerControls();
        m_PlayerControls.Gameplay.SetCallbacks(this);
    }

    private void Update()
    {
        var direction = Time.deltaTime * new Vector3(m_Direction.x, 0, m_Direction.y);
        transform.Translate(direction);
    }

    public void OnMovement(InputAction.CallbackContext context)
    {
        m_Direction = movementVelocity * context.ReadValue<Vector2>();
    }

    private void OnEnable()
    {
        m_PlayerControls.Gameplay.Enable();
    }


    private void OnDisable()
    {
        m_PlayerControls.Gameplay.Disable();
    }
}

That is my configuration:

I cannot found any solution on the web. Seems like I'm the first one with this problem.

Answer 1

To add to the answer above - to get the Sticks to register as available input for a binding, the Action also has to be set as "Pass Through" and "Vector 2"

Controller setup example

Answer 2

I've found the solution. The correct way to map a stick is using the simple binding instead of 2D vector composite.
