F/A-18 A/G gun trigger changes to A/A mode

Note sure if this is a bug, a lack of understanding, or possibly both.

 

On the F/A-18 when I change to A/G mode, select guns in CCIP and press the trigger (default binding on my Thrustmaster Warthog Joystick) I get inconsistent results.  Some times rounds are fired and some times the the mode changes to A/A with the AZ/EL on the left DDI and RDR/ATTK on the right DDI.  Same thing happens in the latest 2.5 release.  Is this a bug or am I not understanding a new feature?

I'm heavily suspicious of my warthog joystick.  I'm testing it and all buttons are being activated with the trigger.

Yup, hardware problem, a wire was severed in my Thrustmaster joystick base.  Fixed it and all is good now.
