i want to update the firmware on my dualsense controller and installed the necessary app on a vm. it opens but when i plug in the controller the app seems to crash. i tried uninstalling and reinstalling and rebooting but it keeps crashing. does anyone have any potential fixes?
I suggest using QEMU/KVM with automatic USB redirection, I updated my Dualsense yesterday that way with no problems. iirc automatic USB redirection is available on VirtualBox too.
just setup a fresh windows 10 vm with qemu. unfortunately im having the exact same issue. it opens, i connect the controller, it closes/crashes
Try passing through a whole USB controller (chipset) instead of using USB emulation.
I'd try passing through a single USB port first though, as the above has some requirements to work that your system may not meet, but it's the best solution if you need it regularly.
