      I use an 8bitdo SN30Pro+ in Switch (pro controller) mode, and have had zero problems... until now.

      Whenever I try to use the Redream Emulator it does not see my controller, so I can't map the buttons or play any games. If I connect this same controller in "X or D-input" mode, then I CAN map the buttons and play a game. The problem is, I already use these two pairing modes for other devices.

      I could swear I've used my Switch mode-connected SN30Pro+ with Redream in the past, and was able to map the buttons just fine. Am I wrong or just remembering incorrectly? Has Redream now or in the past, ever supported controllers that connect using Switch mode?

      Is it possible to get an 8bitdo SN30pro+ in "Switch mode" to work with Redream?

      Emulator: Redream
      Config File: redream.cfg (https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/yrCfz72Mph/)

      I've tried...
      -uninstalling and reinstalling Redream multiple times
      -updating Redream
      -updating controller firmware
      -deleting redream.cfg
