Retroarch not working with X-Arcade Tank stick?

[anticlockclock]

I thought I had configured my x-arcade tankstick to work with everything just fine as I can operate hyperspin and mame with all the controls working... I went in and manually configured my NES config file to set the buttons and its acting as if its controlling the menu/hotkeys and not the character on screen (player 2 buttons change screen size, etc.). Does anyone have a simple file I can throw into my controller configs for all emulators within retroarch or a solution to disable hotkeys? I've searched all over google and youtube. Blows me away there isn't a standard download for this universal gamepad.

Thanks!
