I noticed that the games run much slower in the new version!
and this might also be the cause of the problem for the WiiMote syncing!
I don't really know, but my guesses are that the WiiMote waits for a "Fast response" and the emulator is not getting it right while running slower.
look at the screenshots below:

Notice that in the older version, the game is running at 100% without any problems, while in the newer version, it can only run at 50-70%.
And that happens in either, the master branch, or the comex-wiimote-fixes branch.
