Also affected similarly 045e:0745 (Nano Transceiver).

Copying from my comment in the later bug #581862 which I'll set as duplicate of this one:

Changing back to Confirmed, still happens. For example in Psychonauts from Ubuntu store this bug causes the character to run in one direction all the time.

Creating a file /lib/udev/rules.d/52-ms-keyboard.rules and adding the following there does workaround the problem:

SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{idVendor}=="045e", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0745", KERNEL=="js[0-9]*", MODE="0000"
