Undo revision 184397 by NM64 (That's an official guide linked in several places, suggesting to run Dolphin as root -- especially the Flatpak version, which is not maintained by us -- is definitely not appropriate, given the imposed security risks)

 Flatpak users will have to allow Dolphin access to the adapter with <code>--device=all</code>. <code>/usr/bin/flatpak run --device=all --command=/app/bin/dolphin-emu-wrapper org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu</code>
-If Dolphin still lists "insufficient permissions" even with the above, then your only choice, regardless of how ill advised the following suggestion may be (unless it's a PC with no network access), is to run Dolphin as root every time in order for it to properly find the adapter; this can be done with the following terminal command:
-<code>sudo -i /usr/bin/flatpak run --command=/app/bin/dolphin-emu-wrapper org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu</code>
