Hi everyone,
I just bought Donkey Konga bongos for the GameCube. I have a perfectly fine GameCube adapter so I naturally thought I'd play the Taito mode on osu! with the bongos.
Problem:
Unfortunately, the song selection menu scrolls from top to bottom automatically whenever the bongos are plugged in. I can configure the actual drum buttons and use them correctly when in-game, but it makes song selection frustratingly hard. I'm pretty sure the Z Axis / Z Rotation / Slider are the culprits.
What I tried:
Having a way to completely disable joystick support would be a great option. I could then use some program to map joystick keys to keyboard keys and use those in the Taito mapping on osu!. osu! doesn't have to know about the joystick at all in this case.
Another option would be to turn off the automatic "hey, you have a joystick with an analog so let's use that for song selection". I can see how in most cases this might be a good thing, but not every controller ever is mapped the same way.
If anyone has a quickfix involving any trick that doesn't involve patching the game, please let me know, as I'd just like to be able to play a bit and I don't mind fiddling around if need be.
Screenshot showing the problem (in the USB Controllers properties on Windows 10):
osu! version: 20160525.2 (latest)
P.S. I've seen other similar threads by searching around, but none of them with a fix for my specific use case. The "auto-scrolling" seems to be related to other things in most cases, or the person didn't actually need to use the joystick. But feel free to point be to other threads if you think it might help.
Thanks!

What I tried:
- Adding Joystick = 0 to my osu!.user.cfg file. No luck, but anyway, it seems this config might not be of any use anyhow.
- Using X360ce to try and make the game detect only the buttons I want to use, not the unused axes. This didn't work because apparently osu! deletes the "xinput1_3.dll" file which X360ce creates. I'm sure there's a good reason for that.
