Some helpful links:

But, by far the easiest is to map then adjust properties on the .cfg file after exiting MAME as was first suggested. This is not an explicit bug, not reportable, and MAME functions as it is designed. MAME is not configured to be handle hot-plugging of devices while it is running. MAME reanalyzes input devices every time as part of it's initialization process.
