MAME crashes on exit when second controller not plugged in

Hi all... hopefully, someone can give me some guidance.
I've got my default controller settings in MAME set up for two X360 controllers and my X-Arcade Tankstick. Everything works fine so long as both X360 controllers are plugged in. If only one of the X360 controller is in, though, MAME crashes on exit and gives me the following message:
"Caught unhandled St11logic_error exception: basic_string::_M_construct null not valid"
I wouldn't care, except when this happens, it erases my custom controller settings. I don't want to have to keep my second X360 controller plugged in at all times, nor do I want to have to use my backup Cfg file every time I use MAME.
Anyone know what might be causing this?
If it's relevant, I'm using MAMEUIFx64 0.171, which was a build from February, 2016.
Thanks!!!

You're not going to get much help with nonstandard builds like UIFX as they often have bugs above and beyond the standard MAME distribution.
I do have some good news for you, though. MAME 0.173 and later has greatly improved XInput support for those 360 pads, and you're definitely going to want to upgrade as soon as possible to take advantage of it.

Thanks for the info! What frontend would employ a standard build? I'm still too much of a noob to feel comfortable just using command lines.

Basically any of the frontends that support MAME would be fine. mGalaxy, QMC2, etc.
