Bug Description
Binary package hint: xinput
When plugging in my Sixaxis and pressing the home button to wake it up it is used to control the mouse. It should be considered a joystick first. This makes me unable to use it in any other way.
Her is Xorg log

Hi sethhikari,
Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` and `dmesg`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (and maybe Xorg.0.log.old) file from after reproducing this issue. If you're using a custom /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.
