Saitek X56 Throttle stopped working with IL2 only

[TheHighwayman]

Brief description: Saitek X56 Throttle quit working. 

Detailed description, conditions: Upon startup, screen appears to indicate a new controller has been detected (Saitek X56 Throttle). This is not a new controller as I have been using the X56 for a few weeks already. In game, the throttle does not work at all. Throttle is powered. IL2 does not acknowledge any inputs. When I go to Key Mapping, commands appear for the throttle as "Joy 2." Previously, my joys were Joy 0 (stick) and Joy 1 (throttle). When I click to remap a command and move the throttle, nothing happens. IL2 does not recognize any input -- the same as if I had not pressed any buttons. 

 

I can use the throttle normally in DCS which suggests this is an issue with IL2. 

 

I have changed the throttle to several USB ports, including USB 2.0, 3.0 and a powered UBS 2.0 hub. The problem persists. 

 

Drivers are updated, and the problem appears unique to the throttle/IL2 alone. IL2 responds to stick commands as well as keyboard and mouse. 

 

My Saitek X55 controller (stick and throttle) which I have on a second computer, works fine. 

 

Stick is plugged in, and is programmable in Saitek software. Windows reports no problems with device. Drivers are updated. 

 

 

Additional assets (videos, screenshots, logs):  Am flying with Oculus Rift. Non-Steam version. 3.004.

Your PC config data (OS, drivers, specific software): DxDiag file attached. 

 

Thank you for looking into this.
