Description

As I like to concentrate all my games on my Game PC, I also have my ROM (SNES, n64) backups there so I can play from any Box TV (android) spread through the house.

This easy setup, however, requires me to use non-official (non-Xbox or non-ps3-4) controllers.
And since I'm already adding some extra controllers support, if anyone has the same issue, let me know through this thread so I can provide a PR with a sound library.

Example of gamepads I use:

name (mibox4): SWITCH CO., LTD. Controller (Dinput)

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Begin by reproducing the issue on an Android TV with the listed SWITCH CO., LTD. D-input controller, then compare its behavior with the existing Xbox and PS3/4 controller support. Done means the non-official controller works reliably for the relevant game input paths and has coverage for the supported behavior.
