Sony PS4 (Dual Shock 4) Controller in WINE

Dear All,

today I tried to use my PS4 Dual Shock 4 Controller for an RC Flight Simulator running under Wine (PhoenixRC). Unfortunately, while the controller runs perfectly for anything native (Linux), it is not recognized at all under WINE. (I am using the latest WINE Staging WoW64 build from AUR.) That is to say, I don't even see it listed when running

$ wine control

and then going to the "Game Controllers" section.

I've tried to find anything related on the web, but seemingly this is expected to "just work" - or I am doing something wrong. Any ideas what might be preventing my controller from showing up properly?

TIA
