Wonder if it's connected to my hardware?
Have a g19 keyboard and g500 mouse. Noticed that Linux detects that my keyboard as having 2 joystick devices, I only see 1 d-pad on the keyboard, so not sure what else is being picked up.
I think so. I noticed that when the game finds a joystick it defaults to it and stops keyboard/mouse input so the fact that linux sees these as joysticks must be screwing you over. Try to "chmod 000" these /dev/input/js* devices and see what happens.
If this solves the problem you can try to define some rules in your X11 configuration to ignore these devices as a workaround.
