There are a lot of threads on these forums for the Saitek (Insert model here) Joystick issues especially when assigning a Push to talk button for teamspeak.
The issue arises because Teamspeak in their infinite wisdom decided to stop supporting direct input around 4 patches ago and have made it quite clear they will not reintegrate support for this due to both a security issue and some additional issue with android.
There is a solution to this
a) Roll back to a previous version of teamspeak
b) Open the "Test Profile" window in the Saitek profiling software and keep it open during your gaming. (This enables global input from any device to any app)
For those wishing to roll back
If you have updgraded, you can redownload the older versions here:
64bit: http://www.filehippo.com/download_teamspeak_client_64/15906/
32bit: http://www.filehippo.com/download_teamspeak_client_32/15905/
Patch nodes directly from team speak:
Version 3.0.12
* Direct Input Hotkey is now automatically changed to "Default" in preparation to removing Direct Input in a later release. While you can manually switch it back to Direct Input again, we don't recommend to do so.
Version 3.0.13
* Removed deprecated Direct Input hotkey system, meanwhile replaced by the "Default" hotkey system.
For any other issues that this does not resolve for you
Dont forget to Uncheck the
Control Panel
If anyone has a solution that doesn't require rolling back or having to, open the profiler test window, i'd love to hear it
If anyone has a decent profile for the X52, please could ya link it, i'd like to compare and see what others have done
