Thanks for prompting a deeper look-through. I think I've made a mistake but also am confused enough not to know really what mistake I made. The file I was looking at was a copy in my downloads folder. However the only other place I can find the 360 xml file is in //xbmc/system. Only "keyboard.xml" is in my userdata/keymaps folder. I see XBMC loading a file from //profile/keymaps/ but I can't find that location.
this page appears to indicate that profiles is located in "/userdata/profiles" which doesn't actually exist.
One complication is that my userdata is installed to AppData/local/ instead of AppData/roaming/. I think that may be from an episode when setting up my system that I renamed the user account and tried to change location unsuccessfully to another drive. Windows now references /local/ and I just leave it alone.

So it's registering the correct button I'm pressing, but the assignment isn't working. I'm also not loading the appdata xml file as it looks like it's just pulling defaults from profile? I was looking at a previous
thread from 2012 implying strongly that keymap xml files from "appdata/keymaps" automatically override defaults. Is that correct?
Also I'm not sure what difference it would make as the xml
