The touchscreen only works in games that allow mice input. See the retropie docs on trackpads for more info on how to setup a mouse in emulators

Troubleshooting: The touchscreen is not responding Change the mouse index one digit higher, if it still isn’t working keep going up. (you can also try 1)
