Dolphin does not save Config. Resets to Default on every exit.

[CitywideMars50]

Hi, I'm new to Recalbox, just installed it earlier today. I love it, it's great! But Dolphin has issues with the audio backend on all games. It crackles, and is delayed from the video by default. I can change this by switching it to using the 'Cubeb' backend instead of 'Pulse', but my configuration isn't saved and is reset to 'Pulse' on every exit. You can confirm this by editing the root/configs/dolphin-emu/Dolphin.ini via nano Dolphin.ini and ssh, while dolphin is running, and after you close it.

x86_64 PC - Intel Desktop Board DH61CR
RecalBox 8.0.1 Electron (current as of posting for x86_64)
USB drive to boot & External HDD for roms
Intel Xeon 1225 v2 CPU
ASUS HD 6450s GPU
2x USB Xbox 360 Wired controllers

Reproducing: Flash 8.0.1 Electron x86_64 PC to a USB stick and try to run dolphin. Tip: don't wear headphones, you won't want them.
All I would like is a config override option for dolphin or fixing the default settings. Many Thanks!

Any info on this? I've looked into the different Dolphin.ini files located in /recalbox/share/system/configs/dolphin-emu and /recalbox/share_init/system/configs/dolphin-emu and both reset to 'Pulse' on exit. I've tried using the config override feature but it doesn't seem to work with dolphin. I really wish I don't have to switch to Batocera because of a simple config issue, I've spent hours configuring Recalbox already lol!
Many Thanks

@citywidemars50 Dolphin has a known bug, I don't know if it's related:

I know we're not talking about the same emulator, but on N64 there is a well known alternative to make the script stop automatically updating config files, maybe it works for Dolphin (not sure, test and check):

i have changed the last line of this file and works for me.

/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/configgen/generators/dolphin/dolphinGenerator.py
