Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade? Was there a prior kernel version where you were not having this particular problem?
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.7 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

UPON PLUGGING USB CONNECTOR IN: =============================== Driver version is 2.1.0. Joystick (Logitech Logitech(R) Precision(TM) Gamepad) has 2 axes (X, Y) and 10 buttons (Trigger, ThumbBtn, ThumbBtn2, TopBtn, TopBtn2, PinkieBtn, BaseBtn, BaseBtn2, BaseBtn3, BaseBtn4). Testing ...

Joystick (Logitech Logitech(R) Precision(TM) Gamepad) has 2 axes (X, Y) and 10 buttons (Trigger, ThumbBtn, ThumbBtn2, TopBtn, TopBtn2, PinkieBtn, BaseBtn, BaseBtn2, BaseBtn3, BaseBtn4). Testing ...

Note - I'm not sure whether the d-pad should be classified as a pair of axes or a pair of hats - it is a digital d-pad though, *not* analog.
