Description

There's a bit of a conflict when using a Spacemouse whislt relying on the `Commoninput` subsystem (and subsequently, `CommonUI`). The Axis controls are registered as Mouse & Keyboard input while the buttons are registered as Gamepad input - causing issues with UI input handling and `CommonBoundActionButton` widgets.

Research direction

Start by tracing the Spacemouse Axis and button registrations through the CommonInput subsystem and their handling by CommonUI, especially CommonBoundActionButton widgets. Reproduce the conflict with a Spacemouse and verify that axis and button inputs are classified consistently so UI input handling works without the current conflict.
