BigBox - Ultimarc 360s causing Navigation Issues

Folks,

I know this is BigBox and not Ultimarc, but I've found that whenever I have either (or both) of my Ultimarc 360 joysticks connected up, I get random Up/Down/Left/Right navigation in BigBox.

And it happens with either controller, even though I only have one of them selected in Options -> Controllers and I do not have "Use All Controllers" selected.

If I have the whole controller box disconnected, the random navigation does not happen, but it happens as soon as I have either one of them connected.  (Note that I can have my IPAC connected, and the random navigation only happens if I also have one of the Ultimarc 360s connected.

Any ideas?

See this post also. Sadly there is still no solution. It only happened with BigBox for me. I had to end up removing mine from my cabinet if I wanted to still use BigBox as it drove me crazy. It is a real shame since as they are really nice joysticks. If this issue ever gets resolved I will definitely install them back in my cabinet.

I've been having the same problem even when I have not had "Use All Controllers" selected.  I have only one controller selected, and that is my Ultrastick 360.

However, I've found a solution!  Deselect "Use Controllers" so that Bigbox isn't looking or any controller input, then wire the Ultrastick 360 for digital operation by connecting from the 10-wire output pin to my IPAC so that it just looks like keys pressed.  I still have it connected to USB, and it's still programmable--but BigBox ignores any controller input.
