Are you sure you tried the steps in this post? Here is what they suggested -
1. Log in each controller with different accounts. (Do not login as a guest)
2. When you choose home/away sides. Make sure to connect each controller to EA server.
3. Create a name, customize your controller and have fun.
There are some people that tried this and it worked for them. I just want to make sure you also followed these steps. Unfortunately, I can't think of anything else that may resolve this.

You could try creating accounts that can be used for each controller. I realize this could take a while, but once it's done, it seems it should work. You'd just have each controller logged into its own account.
You say you can't play with your friends. This is because everyone has complicated controller settings that they don't want to change each session or is there something else preventing you all from playing together?

I'm very sorry for the frustration with this. If there's an update to how controller settings are saved, we'll make an announcement on our official channels.

Hi There,
Is there an update on this issue?
It also happens to me with Xbox Series X, can't play with friends like that, all controllers(4) are with different accounts, but only the main controller is the only one that can be changed.
This is really frustrating to not be able to do a basic action as changing the configuration in the remote, it looks like you really have a problem here with different consoles it still happens.
Can someone take this finally seriously, doesn't happen in other games, I even got two times a controller got "locked" only in Fifa screens the controller didn't even react.
Next-generation game with next-generation console, can't do the basic controller configuration...

I don't have any updates on this yet, but it's possible there's a workaround. Do you have anything plugged into the USB ports? If so, try unplugging them and see if that makes a difference. Thanks!

thank you for your reply!
No nothing is connected to the USB port, even tried connecting controllers directly with wired USB.
so again this is not a solution but thank you anyway...
