G940 in FSX

I got a Logitech G940 and I think I will like it but I'm having some pretty frustrating problems trying to get the thing to work in FSX. I can't get some of the axis' and most of the buttons to work in flight. Starting from the profiler, with the latest and greatest software and firmware, did absolutely no good. So I tried to set the thing up in FSX. Here's what I'm seeing. All the basic pitch/roll/rudder/throttle/mixture/propeller controls work fine in FSX. The buttons are the issue. If I go into game controllers settings in Win 7, or in the profiler, all the axis and buttons are there and work as advertised. Once I get into FSX, most of the buttons don't work at all. So I try to set up the controls while in the game and what I have found is that all the buttons that don't work, show up in the game as keyboard entries, i.e. I try to assign button 4 on the joystick to a function and instead of showing as button 4, it shows as a keyboard L or S or /. I was running the G940 through a USB hub along with several other devices including a keyboard. So I plugged it directly into a USB port but that didn't change anything. Most of the joystick/throttle buttons showed up as a keyboard entry and didn't work in flight.
So, I've updated everything and tried everything I can think of. What could be making my controller buttons show up as keyboard entries in FSX?
