How to make Wii remote sound come from speakers and not the Remote speakers ? - BluestopyGER - 05-25-2022
Helllooo Everyone.
im currently trying playing Project zero 2 for the wii and there are small audio clips you can play trough the radio in the game and these sounds run trough the Wii Remote's speaker.
Im playing using a real wii remote connected trough standard Bluetooth and the audio sounds really crunchy and just awful. I cant hear anything. Im not sure if my remote is broken but i can't use it like this.
so i was wondering if i can have the wii remote sound play trough the same speakers that i hear the game's audio with. I tried to see if i can find a way but i didn't. There isn't even a way to go into settings when using a real remote.
I really hope there is a way and that one of you can help me with this little problem.

AFAIK when using standard bluetooth, older non-TR wiimotes have completely broken audio, but the newer TR ones do have usable audio. If you use bluetooth passthrough, you should have working audio with either type if it works well with your bluetooth adapter.
As for playing through system speakers, maybe start by pressing home and seeing if the game will do that normally if you set wiimote speaker volume. Otherwise, maybe try emulated wiimote and connect wii remotes for emulated controllers.
Also, what do you mean by "There isn't even a way to go into settings when using a real remote"?

Only Bluetooth Passthrough deliver proper Wiimote Speaker audio. With Dolphin's default "emulate a BT adapter" mode you'll get either an unrecognizable mess of noises (on non-TR Wiimotes) or a somewhat recognizable but still low quality audio (on -TR Wiimotes) when compared to a real console or Bluetooth Passthrough.
As for redirecting Wiimote sounds to the desktop speakers... I don't know if what you ask is currently possible. I mean, Dolphin will do that when using emulated Wiimotes, but AFAICT that doesn't work when using real Wiimotes. I also heard that some games will start playing the Wiimote sounds on the TV speakers by their own if you mute the Wiimote via the popup that opens when you press Home in the controller, but YMMV here...
