DualShock 3 pressure sensitive buttons not working when using Bluetooth

[StarryFox]

I've been trying to get the pressure sensitive buttons to work with PCSX2 using the DualShock 3 controller but I'm running into some issues. Following the guide I am able to get the pressure sensitive buttons detected and working when connecting the gamepad with the USB, however if I then connect the DS3 using Bluetooth PCSX2 won't detect the face and shoulder buttons as analog anymore; no inputs are detected on those buttons in the pad tester unless they are remapped back to digital inputs.

I'm able to get the pressure sensitive buttons to work when the gamepad is either wired or wireless with RPCS3 (confirmed with the pad testing app) so I'm kind of lost why it's not working with PCSX2. I have tried using both the stable and nightly AppImages as well as the Flatpak release but got the same result. Is there something I'm missing or do pressure sensitive buttons just not work with Bluetooth on Linux (yet)? I'm using Arch if that makes any difference.

Hello, I'm also researching this I'm trying to move from MacOS Windows to Linux, there are few hurdles, right now in order to link PS3 controllers on Linux (some distros apparently ) one has to change some safety settings in /etc/bluetooth/input.conf ClassicBondedOnly=false UserspaceHID=false the second issue is apparently that they are leaving the support of pressure sensitivy to SDL and it seems SDL3 solved this but PCSX2 uses SDL2.
