Camera look buttons don't work on one of my PCs, but works fine on my other...

Recently I got a new PC which is significantly better than my old PC, and I'm experiencing a weird bug with SP in it...
For some reason, I can't get the camera look controls to work on it. Like, the look up, look down, look left/right buttons that you'd usually set to a hat switch on your joystick.

Initially I thought this was a compatibility issue with my joystick, a VKB Gladiator NXT, but when I switched to my old computer, it worked perfectly fine, and then I set these camera look buttons to buttons on my keyboard, and they still didn't move the camera, even though they work perfectly fine on my old computer.

It's kinda odd that this would work perfectly fine on one computer but not the other.
All the keys and stuff are registering and the game knows the buttons are being pressed, but it still won't work.

This is quite frustrating as now I have to do a weird cross-handy thing where I have to look around my plane with my mouse while still holding on to my joystick, and yeah it isn't practical for sure lol

Does anyone else have this issue? Or know what could be wrong?
Thanks.

    Do you have the controller set up in the steam UI?
