OSX- Crash on Launch With Sony DualShock 4 USB Wireless Adaptor

[alexaliferis]

Attract Mode on OSX, going at least back to V2.5, will crash instantly on launch whenever a Sony DualShock 4 USB Wireless Adaptor is plugged in. After going over crash logs and the Console, it appears that the crash occurs when the adapter is being considered for Audio IO. The adapter has a weird config, appearing as two devices to Core Audio-
One with zero inputs and two outputs, running at 16 bit, 32Khz, and another with a single input running at 16 bit, 16Khz(!).

I'll take a look at the source and see if it's an obvious fix, but thought you'd like to know.
Otherwise, Thanks for the great work!

Hi, is there any need for this adapter to work? Because my PS4 joypad works flawlessly in OSX (Big Sur and latest Attract Mode Binary). Both wired and wireless via Bluetooth. Cheers!

Hello- I can understand that it’s a small percentage of users, etc, though the adapter does provide additional functionality in terms of the touch pad on the controller being available as an input in addition to faster response and supposedly more stable/regular pairing. I would say the resolution of this issue is probably more important in regards to it being possibly indicative of other issues with unusual audio configurations possible crashing Attract Mode, if my suspicions as to its cause are correct. Thanks for your response!
