Because it's connected in wireless mode. This issue is super common, sometime it's a software glitch, sometime it's due to hardware.

Can you try to do a few steps below?

HOW TO DELETE & RECONNECT CONTROLLER PAIRING

§ This is a method to reset controllers pairing information and can fix various controllers' connection issues. If you do not have a functional right Joy-con, you can use a different controller such as a Pro controller.

※ With the Switch console in handheld mode.
1. Detach/Disconnect all the Joy-Con and controllers from the Nintendo Switch console.
2. From the HOME Menu, select System Settings ⚙️ > Controllers and Sensors > Disconnect Controllers.
3. Hold down the “X” Button on the right Joy-Con until the blue circle is fully illuminated.
4. Attach or connect any Joy-con and controllers you want to pair to the console.

※ Update the controllers' firmware can fix several issues.

Then pair the joycon back

If that didn't work, try cleaning the contacts on the rail

Damn, this thread got necro twice

But that's like VERY hard to happend, since the rails are hidden, if you could try another joycon on the place to see if will connect or not, then you can be more certain.

#

I had the same issue, but when i tested another joycon it connected without any problem, so is better test all you can think of before doing anything else

I had the same problem, I used some compressed air on the controllers and railing and got it cleaned and made it work again
