8BitDo Ultimate Controller Turns off When Switching Cores

Unread post by MiSTer Consoles »

Hi all. I have an 8BitDo Ultimate controller that I run in 2.4G mode. It works exceptionally well. Unfortunately the controller turns off/disconnects when I switch cores and I have to turn it back on. I believe it has an auto-off feature. I'm wondering if that must be triggered by some change in USB that is sensed by the dongle that it connects to. From what I can tell there is no way to disable the auto-off function. I'm just wondering if there is some change that can be made on the MiSTer side to maintain the connection?
