First, and most basic, you must plug the controller into the adaptor before you plug the adaptor into the computer. If you do not, then it still appears as an input device, but there are no actual controls associated with it.
Second, the L and R analog controls don't work on OSX (but see the Code Patches forum on that front if you don't mind doing your own builds).
Third, force feedback doesn't work. As near as I can tell, there is no support for force feedback on OSX in Dolphin, and then there is no OSX driver for the 3in1 Magic Joy Box to enable force feedback in the first place. I plan to keep looking into this as time and motivation allows.
I hope this helps.
Has your patch made it into an official build of Dolphin?

That I do not, largely because I haven't felt the need to go looking. The Magic Joy Box mostly works for me as-is, I have just today sorted out one of the two disappointments that I've had with it (a fun morning's hack, really, learned quite a bit about USB HID descriptors), and even without the analog part of the L and R controls I've been using it for a couple months now with little incident.
Not to belabor the point, but have you tested the controller you're trying to use on a real GameCube? Have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting the adaptor and then restarting Dolphin? Have you tried using the controller and adaptor with another emulator or game? Have you tried using the controller and adaptor with another computer (such as a Linux or Windows box)?
Most of the other diagnostic approaches that come to mind require the use of some of Apple's developer tools that come with Xcode, or hooking the adaptor up to a Linux box to which you (preferably) have root access.
I don't know what more to say other than to wish you luck.
nyef,
Have you posted your build with the patch online? I'd like to use what you're using. Let me know. Thanks!
