I’ve been troubleshooting why the Wii U Pro Controller (spesifically Afterglow Pro) fails in VC injects when synced through Wii U mode. (I'm using Aroma).

Sync Pro Controller in Wii U mode -
Launch a Nintendont VC inject =
Controller fails / inject crashes.

Sync Pro Controller in vWii mode -
Launch Nintendont from vWii or WiI U (inlcuding Injects) =
Controller works perfectly.


If I resync the Pro Controller to the Wii U at any time, it stops working in my injects and Wii U forwarders.
I also tested with several different .dol files, multiple forwarders for Wii U and vWii (including Nintrix), and every possible setting inside Nintendont, controllers folders, etc. The issue persists across all configurations.


Conclusion:

This proves the conflict probably comes from the Wii U Bluetooth stack claiming the controller during the Wii U → vWii handoff in injects. Disabling plugins didn't fix it — the issue is baked into the Wii U stack itself.

Request fix:

An Aroma plugin that blacklists Pro Controllers from Wii U Bluetooth pairing during injects, leaving vWii HID ownership intact. Or is there any other fix available?

Thanks!
