DolphinBar connection issue - spectro_vi - 06-21-2023

Hello everyone!

I'm fairly new to all of this, so please let me know if anything is missing and I will do my best to accommodate.
I've been running Dolphin on my Mac (oh, the horror!) pretty flawlessly. I recently got a MayFlash DolphinBar so that I could actually use Wii remotes with my games. It's been working fine, except for one odd issue: whenever I open the Dolphin app with the DolphinBar plugged in and a Wiimote connected, I get this weird error message. It seems as though I can't upload an image, so here's a text version:


An error occurred.

Condition: IsHostThread ()
File: /Users/administrator/buildbot-worker/ os_m1/release-osx-universal/build/Source/
Core/Core/Core.cpp
Line: 802
Function: PauseAndLock
Ignore and continue?


Ignore for this session


No
Yes



If I press "yes" or "ignore for this session", everything works fine, however, about 20 minutes after I've started playing a game (I've tested this with a few) in multiplayer, Wii Remote 2 gets randomly disconnected and I can't reconnect it. This is fine in games like MKWii, where I can connect a different remote, but in games like Super Mario Party 8, I can't seem to fix this and I have to restart.
If this is a DolphinBar issue and not a Dolphin issue, please let me know and I'll reach out to support.

Here's my specs:
Apple M2 chip
32GB RAM
Dolphin version 5.0-19548
Revision a7678f3210c3ddce40a52d7da8510c7ab293ea09

Again, let me know if I need to give any more info and I'll do my best.

Thank you in advance!

The problem with the pop-up is a known problem on Dolphin's side. The problem with disconnecting after a while seems unrelated, and I'm not sure what's causing it.
