DualShock 4 Touchpad Support in Games

Hi everyone,

CrossOver version: 19.0.1
OS: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Linux kernel version: 5.3.0-53
PlayStation Now version: 11.1.2

I'm currently playing Spider-Man via PS Now on Ubuntu. I'm using an official DualShock 4 which is connected to the laptop via a microUSB-to-USB cable. I've reached a point in the game where I'm required to press the DualShock 4 touchpad in order to proceed.

The problem is, at present, the DS4 touchpad is treated like any other external touchpad and doesn't trigger the event in the game.

Does anyone know if there's a way to get PS Now to recognise the DS4 touchpad (or another workaround such as using a keyboard key or regular mouse click to the same effect)?

Thanks for your time.
