Title:
  udev: /dev/input/js0 is created but no joystick attached

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  With ubuntu vivid i see a /dev/input/js0. I do not have a joystick or
  gamepad attached. This invalid input device cause a game in steam
  "Crypt of the necrodancer" to crash during start. The game works fine
  when I delete it.

  This appears to be a ubuntu specific bug as it does not show up on
  fedora 22.

  It goes away if I unplug the mouse/keyboard usb dongle I use. If I
  attach a wired keyboard only it does not show up. I tried adding a
  wired mouse too, but that causes js0 to appear too. The output of
  udevadm changes depending on what mouse I have attached. The following
  output is from using the dongle for my wireless mouse/keyboard (both
  microsoft products)

  $sudo udevadm info /dev/input/js0
