I had the same issue today. If you have Winhanced installed try uninstalling it then restarting, that solved the issue for me. I believe it's a bug on their end, at least in my case.
All my controls on the Xbox rog ally changed over night
I went to sleep with the controls normal and just fine I woke up this morning and all of my controls are messed up A takes screenshots B shows my controls Y records clips its scary Because I just got this Xbox rog ally

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.
Before we proceed, I'd like to ask some questions to better understand the situation. May I know if the issue happens during a game which take over your game controls or does it happen in your desktop.
In the meantime, please try to follow this small fix.
- Go to Settings > Gaming > Game Bar.
- Disable "Allow your controller to open Game Bar.
- Restart your computer.
