Description

Tested the joystick dialog on OS X 10.10.2 with XBOX 360 wired controller. When I have the joystick dialog open and the controller connected (either open dialog first or connect controller first) it crashes.

Crash log: http://pastebin.com/wYm2P6nG

Research direction

Reproduce the crash on OS X 10.10.2 with an XBOX 360 wired controller, trying both connection orders while the joystick dialog is open. Start with the crash log at http://pastebin.com/wYm2P6nG; done means the dialog no longer crashes when the controller is connected.
