Description

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

When my controller is plugged and i launch dolphin, it instantly crash. If i plug the controller AFTER launching dolphin, it doesn't crash. I can launch games and play them fine but i can't configure my controller because if i try to, the emulator crash so i have to play with keyboard controls or use 3rd party programs like JoyToKey.
Here is a gif showing the problem : https://i.imgur.com/JZiLde6.gifv . First launch is with the controller already plugged in. For the second launch i unplugged my controller, launched dolphin, then i plugged it back in and tried to configure it.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Try to configure the controls or launch the emulator while the controller is already plugged in

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Yes, it is present in the latest development version [5.0-5314]

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

No, it isn't present in the 5.0 stable version

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version?

After some bisecting i have found the latest development version that doesn't have the crash [5.0-3977] and the first one that have it [5.0-3981]

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

I use Windows 10 x64, my CPU is an AMD A6-3650 @ 2.6Ghz, i have an iGPU AMD Radeon HD 6530D. I can't find any info about my controller online, it's not a genuine one, just some cheap model that looks like a ps2 controller and works via DirectInput

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

I don't know what i can add to help find the problem, my controller works fine with other emulators/games. The only emulator that have the same problem with my controller is cemu.
