Elaborate on what you actually swapped? Physical USB connectors into other USB ports? Swapping just those two connectors (Joystick 1 into what was Joystick 2 USB port and vice versa)? PWM cables on roboRIO? CAN IDs?

How did you test the joysticks? On the original computer? On a different computer? Same USB ports or different?
My initial feeling is a USB port that might not be working right or loose causing a disconnect that you need to do a Rescan to recover from (USB tab in DS, Rescan button at the bottom). When you "swapped", did the problem stay with a certain USB port? If it is an intermittent disconnect, that joystick would turn white in the listing instead of the normal green (keep the USB tab open while trying to drive to see).
