Mala + X-Arcade - Scroll once, then stop

[Necro]

Weird problem.  If I use my XArcade in Mala, I can only scroll one game per 'push' of a button.  It doesn't repeat the button press.  What's weirder is that the keyboard connected THROUGH the X-arcade works FINE. 

Scrolling is still slow-ish with the keyboard, but it just stops dead with the controller.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  I tried turning off scrolling acceleration and changing the keyboard polling, to no avail.

(Also, definitely not the controller, tested that first).

It's possible that a feature may be introduced to MaLa in the future to combat it.

Yup, that sounds like the issue.  It's weird that no other front end displayed this issue...

So...any ideas on when it would be added?
