      Hi!

      When I start my Retropie and choose a game (The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time) my keyboard, which I use as a controller, won't work.
      The only button that works during the game (still in the start screen where it says 'press start') is P, but this only turns the screen black.
      But when I quit the game, the keyboard works perfectly fine again (in the Emulation Station menu).
      Do you have an idea on how to fix this ?

      • Raspberry Pi 3
      • wireless keyboard with usb adapter
      • Retropie 4.1

        @pieguy which n64 emulator are you using? Right after you select a game where it says press a button to configure it says what emulator.
