xpad - led/rumble completely disables controller

xpad - led/rumble completely disables controller

[M G]

Hi, I'm trying to use my Xbox360 Controller with the xpad driver. But
as soon as the led status is set (i.e. right after pluging it in) it
becomes unresponsive. If I comment out the led-setting code in xpad.c
the controller works but only until a rumble effect is played, then it
will become unresponsive again.

I have found that this does not occur if transfer_buffer_length is set
to the exact value, 3 for the led and 8 for rumble, like so:

Does that seem right?
