What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
When I choose the Scan Visor it does not scan nothing. The input button event is working as expected because it works in other places (i.e. to aim).
But when I put the Scan Visor it don't even try to scan (At least something like "the scan distance is too long" must appears, but don't even that).
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Choose scan visor and push the button to scan.
Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.
dolphin 5.0-12749
commit 653f89701db560ffe2c9421c81f3b5347c8dc46f (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD)
Is the issue present in the latest stable version?
No, the Ubuntu 20.04 build -> 5.0+dfsg-6build1 is working but it is slow.
If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)
[First broken version number here (if applicable)]
If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer
[Attach any fifologs if possible, write a description of fifologs and screenshots here to assist people unfamiliar with the game.]
What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)
Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS 64 bits
AMD® Fx(tm)-8350 eight-core processor × 8
RAM DDR3: 15,6 GiB
Radeon RX 580 Series (POLARIS10, DRM 3.35.0, 5.4.0-51-generic, LLVM 10.0.0)
Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)
Both vulkan backend and the OpenGL have the same issue.

Does it work if you turn off all graphics enhancements?

I recently unchecked more than one enhancement and it now works. Really I don't know what enhancement was.
A guide of what will work with each game can be helpful. I know there are advices that say "some games will not work properly [...] but will work most of the times". And the truth is that the game can potentially lost a required functionality like the Scanner on Metroid Echoes (it is a much used one, you need it to detect some puzzles to advance on the game).
Despite the above I am very grateful with the emulation.
