Description

Game Name?

N/A - Dolphin issue

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

Wii U Pro Controllers are able to be connected to the Steam Deck via regular bluetooth (rather than requiring an adapter or third party program). When Dolphin is opened, it will immediately turn off this controller, and keep it turned off until the program is closed and the controller is manually reconnected by the user. (Mashing a button like A on the controller while Dolphin is open will reconnect it for a second, then disconnect it again.)

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Go to the Steam Deck's bluetooth settings - press the Sync button on the Wii U Pro Controller, and click/press A on 'Nintendo RVL-CNT-01-UC' when it shows up to connect.
  2. Exit to Desktop Mode (or start Dolphin from the library if it has been added to Steam) and launch Dolphin
  3. The controller will now be disconnected as described. If in Desktop Mode, it will not be able to reconnect until you go back to Steam Mode.

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 - 2503a (Flatpak)
