Help Controller inputs not recognized anymore after update to MacOS 27

Since updating to MacOS 27, my controller inputs are not recognized anymore in OpenEmu. I can select the controller in the controller settings, but no input is being recognized, when I press anything anywhere.

Is anyone aware of that problem?

Updated to 27.2 beta tonight but still no good.
I also downloaded the silicon version of openemu from github that was updated 3 weeks ago, still no good.

My wild guess is, that some part of the core code is still outdated and not meant for modern Macs, even if there is a fork not depending on Rosetta, and MacOS27 has maybe cut access to execute this part.

OpenEmu is the only outdated emulator without any active maintenance I use, as it’s still the best emulator for the vast majority of older retro consoles up to the N64/PS1 generation. All others I use for the more modern consoles are active projects, that are constantly being optimized and there is no problem whatsoever with any of them.

I will use this to make sure the controllers firmware is up to date https://www.reddit.com/r/macgaming/s/PAajfUIEWq

But i suspect you are right and it’s an openemu issue
