Unable to control motherboard fans on Gigabyte Z690 Aero G DDR4 on CoolerControl
So on my quest to keep my fans from rapidly changing speeds and producing annoying sounds, I attempted to control them through Cooler Control, my first attempt was to control them through my Corsair hub, but Corsair Commander Core is apparently know to be broken in Linux, causing all the lights on my AIO cooler to randomly flash and strobe, so I moved all my fans to my motherboard and blacklisted the Corsair Commander Core. After that, I realized I couldn't see any of my fans at all in any fan control app, I can see and control them just fine from my BIOS, but they are not showing up at all in Linux. I found a few resources on how to fix this on other Gigabyte motherboards from the same generation using the same ITE-8689E super IO in other Linux environments, but I'm having trouble translating any of this into a fix for Bazzite:

I know this is probably a difficult issue to resolve, but any help would be appreciated.
