With any necessary installation complete, run Dolphin and click the GameCube controller dropdown. Select GameCube Adapter for Wii U on any slot that you wish to use the adapter for. Hitting Configure when this is selected allows you to turn rumble off/on per controller, as well as a toggle for using the DK Bongos.

Unlike 4.0-8593 and before, you will have to choose between '''GameCube Adapter for Wii U''' or '''Standard Controller''' for a real GameCube controller or the device emulating a GameCube controller. The hot-plug properties are also removed.
 
You should be sure that if you have Dolphin configured to use the adapter for the emulated controller corresponding to the port on the adapter. For example, if you want to use a GameCube controller as the emulated controller 1, it must be plugged into the 1st port on the adapter.
