Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Connect a real wiimote to Dolphin (I used Windows 7 bluetooth stack, the
real wiimote was in slot 2 while wiimote 1 was emulated)
2.Start a game (I used New Super Mario Bros Wii)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When you shut down the game (either by clicking "stop" or the game window's
X) the wiimote shuts down. Now pressing any button on the wiimote should
make the wiimote flash a few times to indicate it's working. But pressing
any buttons on the wiimote doesn't make it blink. If you remove the
batteries and put them back in, the wiimote starts working again.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
r5271 x64

Because is in a stand-by state or something like that ( I have no idea ) , but if you open the wiimote config
dialog and press "refresh real wiimotes" it will rumble and the lights will turn on

Ah, interesting. I don't think I've seen it in such a stand-by state on the real wii.
The question is, if you exit Dolphin and the wiimote is left in the stand-by state,
will it shut down after a while and function normally next time you use it with
Dolphin or your Wii? (In that case, issue closed)

yes it's still kept on hold, because pairing it up everytime we would need is just a
mess.. at least in the current dolphin state

When the Wiimote gets into a funky state like this, just hold down the little power button in the upper left on the
front of the remote down for a few seconds. This will reset it.
