System Configuration settings for gamepad not saved on client close

Thread Title:
System Configuration settings for gamepad not saved on client close

ISP:
AT&T DSL

Type of Internet Connection:
DSL

Internet Connection Speed:
5Mbit/s

Date & Time:
Feb 23, 2014 CST but this has been going on as far back as I recall

Frequency:
Always

Steps:
1. Go into the System Configuration settings, either from the Final Fantasy XIV title screen or from the in-game menu.
2. Go to the Gamepad Settings section.
3. Check to enable 'Keep gamepad enabled when client is inactive.'
4. This works fine as intended for as long as I keep the game open, but once I log out of the game and close the client, the setting is reset back to unchecked/disabled the next time I launch the game.

Modem maker/model number
Netgear/WNR2000v2
