What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

When using the games profile to specify having a GBA plugged in, and the associated profile, Dolphin raises an error telling me the specified profile doesn't exists.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Use the controller panel to create and save a "GBA (integrated)" controller profile, set said profile in the [controls] section of the game specific ini file.
(my "G4SP01.ini" file is as follow :
[Controls]
PadType0 = 13
PadProfile1 = xbox_gba
)

When starting the game, I get a "No profiles found for game setting 'xbox_gba'" error pop-up.

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

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)
tested on both,
Windows 10, Intel 7700k, GeForce 1080,16 Go RAM
macOS Ventura, Apple MacBook Pro, M1 Max ARM CPU, 32 GPU Cores, 32 Go RAM

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

Log says : 29:07:852 InputCommon/InputConfig.cpp:83 E[MASTER]: Warning: No profiles found for game setting 'xbox_gba'.
After poking around, if I manually copy the xbox_gba.ini file from the "/Profile/GBA/" folder to the "/Profile/GCPad/" it works. It seems like it doesn't search for GBA profiles in the right profile folder.
