Here's my guess: I assume the IPAC sees a keystroke when one of its inputs goes to ground. The P360 probably keeps 5v on its outputs until the stick is moved and then it goes to ground (when connected to the IPAC this would fire a keystroke). However, if you have 2 P360's connected to a single input on an IPAC, then one P360 would always be providing 5v, which might screw with the pullups on the PIC. I think you could easily remedy the problem by putting diodes on each of the P360's outputs to prevent the 5v current from flowing the wrong way. Furthermore, if you are using a different power source for the P360 it would probably be a good idea to use diodes to prevent damage to the IPAC if your power source fluctuates.
