@Anti-Matter It's really just a lubrication issue stemming from poor (cheap?) contacts that eventually break down and their own dust and debris cause them to trigger "button" presses. That's why you can fix it with electronics clean up solution and compressed air for a while by basically cleaning the contacts. Some users mention that using silicon spray fixes the issue nearly permanently since less contact friction means they don't break down that easily
