Buttons POV Problem #47

Description

I'm using the current version of FreeJoy 1.7.1.3b0.

And I've started having a very strange problem. I've been manufacturing devices for flight simulators for a few years and I've used FreeJoy without problems until now. I use a 5-position switch in all my projects; it has up, down, left, right, and center clicks, and I've always configured it for POV1 function. However, in my current project, when I make this exact same configuration, the buttons simply don't appear in the tests, and the clicks go crazy, sometimes changing numbers strangely, or simply don't appear at all in Windows or in the VKB button test. But when I configure these buttons as "normal buttons," they work perfectly, which proves that there's no wrong connection in the matrix or in the switch itself. So, what's happening?

I even thought it was a bug in the current version, but I downloaded the 2023 version again and the error persisted. This is simply bizarre.

I even tried connecting this switch as a Vcc or GND button outside the matrix I always use, and the error continues.

Does anyone have any idea what might be happening?
