Ports pauses on keypress

[thejnc93]

Im having troubles playing any port other than the libretro ports, those work fine.

My trouble is specifically with zdoom, wolf4sdl and smw (supermario war) this started after installing the first two. before that smw worked normally.
Now in the menus everything seems to work ok but once the game starts the keys assingned to other than movement does the predefined action and at the same time it prompts the pause action. just like if the escape key was pressed each time.

That occurs with only with my personal joystick, tried changing ingame controls without luck. no mather how I set them It pauses with every action key.
I tried with another one and work normal.

Raspberry Pi Model : 3 B
RetroPie Version Used : 4.3

is there a mapping file for that every joystick only for the ports?
How can I avoid that behaviour with this controller or at least how can I set everything back to default?

Every kind of help will be aprecciated. Thanks
