Same problem,

Dolphin wiimote notification area changed to "Connecting..." when starting a game and
stay like that when turning off the game.

I had the same behavior as described above. Here is my workaraund:

In the file "wiimote_real.cpp":
In the function : THREAD_RETURN ReadWiimote_ThreadFunc(void* arg)
I changed the following line:

old: if(g_Config.bUseRealWiimote && !g_RunTemporary)
for (int i = 0; i < g_NumberOfWiiMotes; i++)

new: if(!g_RunTemporary)
for (int i = 0; i < g_NumberOfWiiMotes; i++)

because somehow when ever I start a game "g_Config.bUseRealWiimote" is set to false.
I don't know why. With this workaround I can play again and have/had no sideeffects
so far. Tested from 4730 to latest.

I got Win7x64 and Toshiba BT.

Now i find a way to play with my real wiimote:

1 - turn the wiimote option to "Emulated wiimote & use check "use real wiimote"
2 - start a game: Dolphin will tell you that the wiimote is connected
3 - turn off the game
4 - change the wiimote option to "real wiimote"
5 - play your game with your wiimote
