Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Describe what you expected should happen and what did happen.

I have touch-activated mouseLclick on my joystick mouse region, it has a circular region of ~330. It is expected that for as long as I keep the joystick out of the dead zone, there should be constant mouseLclick input held, but instead, at certain directions (11 o clock and 7 o clock) and at outer extremities of the joystick the Lclick is released. I can actually feel the haptic feedback de-activate the mouse click. Calibration in both desktop and game mode reveals there are no drifting issues on both sticks, and yes, swapping the sticks makes the issue appear on both sides.

To expand on this issue, I realize that the mouse click additionally has dead zones, i.e. initiating Rightward and Upward actions will activate the Lclick, but this is not always the case for down and left

Position-wise the mouse region functions well!

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. set a template with joystick mouse region and Lclick binded to touch
  2. select the template
  3. run a game, in my case, Ragnarok Online using dgvoodoo 2.7.9-3 to activate DXVK and proton 9.0.4
