Optional joypad + arcade controls

Re: changeover switch?
Yesterday I tried the following: set index for my SNES gamepad to 1 (or 0? at least the lowest) and my arcade controls (zero delay, so also gamepad) one higher. Playing a console game with my SNES gamepad worked perfectly.
About an hour (and a restart with the SNES gamepad unplugged) later I tried to play a PSX game with the arcade controls, but unfortunately those controls were recognized as player 2 (I couldn't even exit the game with start/select combo). After another restart I tried an arcade game and the controls were recognized as player 1 and everything worked fine. Stupid me didn't test with the PSX game again, because it was late.Is this something normal or just a coincidence? This method should work right?

Yesterday I turned on the RPi without any USB controller plugged in. The arcade controls worked perfectly in ES. I runned a Megadrive game and the arcade controls were recognized as player two. I wasn't able to go back to ES with start-select on the arcade controls. When I plugged in the USB SNES controller I could go back to ES with start-select on that controller.
Any way to "fix" this?
