Anyone know how I can fix this?

First step is to make sure windows is seeing your inputs correctly in Controller Management. Next thing to check is make sure you don't have a third party app listening/consuming your 1B / P1 Home input. Steam by default does things with home button by default that can be a bit of a pain to shut off, could make sure nothing like that is trying to do things when you push that button. Third is to verify the inputs in RetroArch (though sounds like you did that already)
