MS Force Feedback 2: Buttons 7 & 8 not usable

Has anyone tried using a MS Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 joystick with Rogue Squadron? The game refuses to recognize buttons 7 & 8, but appears to function normally otherwise. RS apparently thinks there are only six buttons on the joystick, because when I press "Defaults" to reset the joystick mappings, RS maps buttons 1 through 6, but fails to map buttons 7 & 8. And, it won't let me manually map them either - it doesn't respond at all to buttons 7 or 8 when I attempt to map them to commands manually. Any ideas?

 

Relevant hardware/software:

 

Rogue Squadron, version 1.3 (from the ReadMe file)

MS Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 (just purchased this week)

Celeron II 566 overclocked to 876

Abit BH6, rev 1.0, flashed to QN bios revision

128MB Micron SDRAM -8E

Voodoo 5 5500 AGP using 3Dfx 1.04.01 beta drivers

Windows 98 4.10.1998 (not the SE version) w/ all critical/recommended updates

 

P.S. The joystick functions perfectly in the "Test" page of the SideWinder control panel.
