Small update.
I have found out that Windows uses Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator for controllers. So, if I can figure out how to write a batch file to restart this service via AHK that should fix my issue.
To the Googleweb!

How are you using the controller? USB or wireless? What apps/programs are you using for the PS4 controller? Steam input, ds4, rewasd, etc?
PS controller is connected via BlueTooth, no addintal programs.

OK, just tried the following:
Opened up Big Box (controller white), Launched a GameCube game using Dolphin (controller turns blue). Then I closed the game/emulator, then BB and the controller is still blue. It's like Dolphin takes control of the gamepad, but does not let go.

This is probably more complicated than what I'm about to say considering the color change on the controller, but sometimes when an emulator closes it looks like bigbox is in the foreground, but its not. In other words, try to replicate this issue, and instead of restarting your controller, just click bigbox once with your mouse (to bring it to the foreground), then try the controller. This isn't a solution, but it'll help determine what the actual problem is, and what it isn't.
I will give this a try.

Maybe dolphin is changing the controller order? Hence the color change. Does input work in dolphin for your controller? There is also the setting in big box to allow all controllers to control big box, not just player 1.
After all that I think dolphin is re initializing the controller in sdl mode, the controller turns blue. After exiting is the light still blue or does it go back to white?
No, the controller stays blue until I turn off the controller, then back on again.

I am able to contol Big Box, without issue; I am able to control Dolphin without issue. However, once I am done playing a Dolphin game (specifically Nintendo GameCube) I am unable to control Big Box again unless I restart my PS4 controller. Once I restart the controller, I gain perfect access to Big Box. If this helps when I first boot up Big Box my PS4 controller LED is white, when I launch Dolphin it turns blue.
Controler setup.
PS4 controller.
Dolphin Settings: Set in Dolphin as Standard controller, in Config set as SDL/0/PS4 Controller
All other functions work perfectly for the rest of my emulators.
Any help you can provide would be awesome!

You could be running into the issue simply because the order you tried things. To get the image to display you should do the following (in order):
1) Open LaunchBox, go to Tools > Manage > Platforms.
2) Select the platform in question and press edit
3) In the form that appears the right hand side shows images assigned to the platform. Verify that a logo is present, if there isn't one add it by using the Add Image button or dragging the image to the window. When adding an image using either method make sure to assign the image type to clear logo by selecting the text in that control and then selected the Clear Logo image type from the menu that appears
4) Press OK to save changes, then close LaunchBox
5) Open Big Box, then go to the system menu (press back) and then to Options
6) Go to the Image cache section and clear your platform image cache
7) Return to your wheel and you should see the image as desiredI have been banging my head against a wall trying to figure out why this was not working. I was able to fix it thanks to you! Thank you! In my case clearing the image cache fixed it. Thanks again!

Hi folks. Prior to LaunchBox 5.2 in order to get WinKawaks to automatically open games you needed to use script files in emulator mode, or else use WinKawaks in application mode. With the latest version of LaunchBox, it's no longer necessary to create scripts to launch WinKawaks games. Image 1 shows the emulator settings for WinKawaks, and Image 2 is just a sample game setup. My paths are shown, but your's will be different.
Can you point me to Image 1 please? I am not seeing it on this post.

I think that did it, just reinstalled DS4Windows and I can use both Dolphin and Big Box. Thanks for your help!
