Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

I'm using an original Wii bluetooth adapter connected to USB. Passthrough works perfectly the first time, but every time I close Dolphin, it no longer works at all. Everything runs normally, but wiimotes won't connect to anything. I have to restart Windows to make it work, and then it again only works the first time I start Dolphin.

Does Dolphin somehow lock the bluetooth adapter and never releases it?

Sometimes it happens that the BT dongle gets locked. Try to unplug and plug the BT dongle and check if it fix the issue.
