So on my PC, I have both an arcade stick (for this game and a few other fighters) as well as a gamepad (for platformers as well as other controller-friendly games). With both controllers plugged in to my computer, I can use the game with either controller just fine *except* for the gallery. If I enter the gallery, the buttons on either controller don't work and I have to use the keyboard to browse the gallery and eventually exit it.

ETA: A bit more testing seems to show that issue comes up if you select something other than a keyboard config or the game controller assigned as "Controller 1" for player 1 at the controller select. I was able to browse just fine with my gamepad (which was controller 1) but not my arcade stick (which was controller 2). If I unplugged both controllers then plugged in my stick first (making it Controller 1 and the pad Controller 2), then I can browse the gallery with the stick.

So am I the only one with this issue, or that there's a workaround means it's not going to be fixed? I don't want to have to play swapping games with my controllers to fully use this game...

ETA: Though I guess a more accurate description of this problem is "Can't browse the art gallery with a controller other than Controller 1"...
 
Currently, the gallery does look for the first instance of a controller and only uses that when dealing with peripherals.

I'll see about fixing that up.
