Gravis Gamepad on ZSNES, FreeBSD 5.3

I'm having trouble getting a gamepad to work with zsnes. When I start it up through the terminal it tells me that "ZSNES could not find any joysticks"
A quick dmesg tells me that the controller is plugged in and is recognized.

ugen0: Gravis GamePad Pro USB, rev 1.00/2.00, addr 2

help?

"ugen" is a generic driver. This means that the hardware has been correctly detected, but no specific driver is present (or necessary). I think it should be a "uhid" instead, but I have no links or anything to support that right now.

For now, make one simple test please: After booting, unplug it and plug it back in (you need usbd running). run "dmesg" or "tail /var/log/messages". Is it now a "uhid0" (number is not important) or did anything else change?

Some USB devices need this. I dunno why, but I am investigating a similar issue with some other HW.
