The NEW Build Your Own Arcade Controls

We are trying to implement using "mapdevice" xml element to resolve the problem of MAME remapping all our controls when we plug and unplug an AimTrack gun.
We added this code to a config file but are unsure whether it goes in the mame/ctrlr folder or in the mame/cfg folder. We have tried it in both but haven't been successful yet:
<mapdevice device="VID_FAFA&PID_00F0" controller="JOYCODE_1" />
<mapdevice device="VID_FAFA&PID_00F1" controller="JOYCODE_2" />
<mapdevice device="VID_FAFA&PID_00F2" controller="JOYCODE_3" />
<mapdevice device="VID_046D&PID_C52B" controller="MOUSECODE_1" />
<mapdevice device="VID_FAFA&PID_0020" controller="MOUSECODE_2" />
<mapdevice device="VID_FAFA&PID_000B" controller="MOUSECODE_3" />
<mapdevice device="VID_D209&PID_1601" controller="GUNCODE_1" />
<mapdevice device="VID_D209&PID_1607" controller="GUNCODE_2" />
We get this verbose output from MAME:

Any thoughts on what we need to do to make this work?

Great, I thought this problem was addressed in MAME. I never have these issues (.173) and I've unplugged all my controls and plugged them back in many times without issue. I guess that's why I thought it was fixed. Guess I'd better prepare.
Sorry, a thread bump is about all the help I can give.
