Bluetooth Passthrough on a second Bluetooth device

Hello!

Long time lurker and documentation has been well past good enough to learn just about anything I've needed but now I have a question and thus a reason to create an account and post.

I recently stumbled upon Bluetooth Passthrough, a feature that lets Dolphin take control of the Bluetooth device completely instead of relying on emulation through the OS Bluetooth stack. This is phenomenal and I need it. I usually don't emulate games that need the Wii remote much because it hasn't been accurate enough. This changes things for me.

However, I use an Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows with my PC to connect a Xbox One controller. I'm pretty sure the controller uses another protocol than Bluetooth but I'm afraid it will stop working if I plug Bluetooth USB adapter into my computer and use Zadig. Maybe the adapter has Bluetooth as well? I'm not sure.

On another computer I have a Bluetooth USB-adapter that I use for wireless headset and a mouse. I understand that I can't use it as a Bluetooth Passthrough device and for my headset at the same time:

Quote:WARNING: While a libusb driver is installed, other programs/devices will not be able to use your Bluetooth device. This can be easily reverted in Windows Device Manager and instructions are provided below.

But can I use a second USB device and use that one for the passthrough to Dolphin? Has anybody done this?
