Using x-box 360 controller

Hi. We are using the x-box controller and are controlling the robot drive using arcade drive. Using arcade drive frees up 1 joystick on the x-box controller.
We have tried to access the 'extra' joystick but can't seem to get the 'extra' joystick to output anything to say, a motor controller. We have assigned the 'extra' joystick a refname like 'Joystick 2' and have chosen the same USB (1) as the joystick employed for arcade drive. When that didn't work, we chose USB2 (which also didn't seem to work). We have the x-axis going into a motor set speed vi. We did not unbundle the y-axis because we didn't need it for the application.

I know this is probably simple - can anyone help with this?

Thanks.
