Can't connect Wii Remote with Dolphinbar on Ubuntu 16.04(build 1043)

[NeutronPCXT]

Hi guys, this is NeutronPCXT again, from a few months ago. I recently got a Dolphinbar to use my Wiimotes in Dolphin, so I could finally enjoy some Mario Kart Wii. I did everything to set it up: I checked if the firmware was the latest and it was, I synced my Wii Remote with the bar, and it was recognized by the bar.

I was pretty happy until I read that this bar wasnt supported on Linux on its review page on the official Dolphin page. Being stubborn, I looked everywhere, and found that since Dolphin 5.0-876, the Dolphinbar was natively supported on Linux.

So I compiled the latest at the time build 1043, checked every setting(Wiimote motor, Continuous scanning, Refreshing), and to my surprise, it didnt vibrate when I hit refresh. I said ''meh", and when I jumped in-game, the OSD told me that my Wiimote was automatically disconnected. I can provide a screenshot to help you help me resolve my issue.

So, can anybody help me solve this problem? I would be very happy if someone could. Using official non-TR Wiimote, Ubuntu 16.04, Dolphin 5.0-1043. Ask me anything about my setup if you need it.

Make sure Dolphin has permission to use the hidraw devices (by installing a udev rule): https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/blob/master/Data/51-usb-device.rules

If it still doesn't work, I suggest enabling error logging and checking if there's an error in the logs.

Wait, this is what I did with my Mayflash Gamecube adapter. I didnt know I also had to do this too with the Dolphinbar.
Update: Thank you so much. It worked instantly. You really made my day
