Multiple 8BitDo Pro 2 (Switch/PC) - Only the first one works?

Hey guys,

I recently acquired two 8BitDo Pro 2 (wired, for Switch/PC) controllers with explicit intent to use the on the PSX core. I'm finding the first controller connects fine, the lights come on, light up as player one and I can use it with the core.

When I add the second, it seems to get "stuck" flashing player two lights and not responding to anything.

If there's any troubleshooting I can do here to get to the cause of the problem, please let me know - I'd call nmyself intermediate with Linux and know some from a few years back (before systemd sadly!)

Anyone experienced similar/found a solution for these two pads to work together?
