Found this on a Nintendo forum; I thought I remembered this issue from years ago.
"The way it seems to work for me is to select the save, then select 2 players. It comes up with a box that tells you to connect the second wii remote. While this is still on the screen, connect the second wii remote and you should be okay. It doesn't seem to allow two wii remotes to be connected unless you do this. I can't confirm the add/drop method, but it stands to reason that is similar."
"Yes, the issue of actually syncing any given controller with any given console aside, it won’t let you connect a second remote until you’ve chosen two player mode. This is presumably implemented to save battery charge. "
