When multiple VBA-Ms arelinked to Dolphin, I can't control them simultaneously

Hello there, first of all a big thank you for providing this software, it's amazing!

 

I've been trying to play Four Swords Adventure with a friend on my laptop and we've gotten very close. I can now connect multiple VBA-Ms to a Dolphin game and have them register as controllers. The game will start, but then, we can't control our VBA-Ms simultaneously, even though "Pause when inactive" is unchecked and we are, ofcourse, using separate controls. When I switch from one VBA-M to the other, by selecting it with my mouse, I can then control the other VBA-M. So I can switch between them, just not use them at the same time! Switching controls from Xbox One controllers to, for example, keyboard, doesn't work either.

 

When I open two VBA-Ms and open a normal GBA game, I can control both of them at the same time. Hence, the problem occurs once I link them to my Dolpin emulator. I've tried using many different versions of both VBA-M and Dolphin, and I've always come across the same problem. These are the versions I've tried:

 

VBA-M:

VBA-M-r-1181

VBA-M-r-1229

VBA-M 1206

 

Dolphin:

3.5-1381

4.0-4811

 

I haven't gotten the VBA-M link to work with Dolphin 5.0.

I'm using Windows 10.

 

Really hoping that someone here can help! Thank you!
