            Bug ID: 44279
           Summary: Wine can't enumerate HID device that is based on
                    Bluetooth (a Wiimote)
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: epigramx at yahoo.com
      Distribution: ---

On Windows, if I run hclient.exe (source here:
https://github.com/Microsoft/Windows-driver-samples/tree/master/hid/hclient) I
can normally see my paired and connected device, as shown in this image:
https://i.imgur.com/Up60k7s.png It's one of the Wii Remote Plus devices.
However, if I do pair and connect the device on Debian and if it correctly
appears in /sys/bus/hid/devices and all the tests here work:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/XWiimote , running hclient.exe with wine
on linux does not find that hid device which might explain why it's not
detected by a console application that relies on enumerating HID devices on
windows. 

I suspect it's a limitation of wine in finding HID devices if they originate
from Bluetooth but I can't be sure.

I might return with more details later on (when I reboot to Linux) but let me
know if you need specific further details. 

Wiimotes are very common so if a dev could try one and see if he can enumerate
it in hclient (source above) that'd be great.
