Best way to handle a chat pad on an Xbox controller?

[DeanGrey]

I am out here breaking barriers with my Xbox controller and attached chat pad but I have an issue. When I click, lets say, "M" on the chatpad to open my map, it switches it to keyboard mode. Then I move my controller stick to navigate. Then I want to click "M" again to close the menu but I need to actually click it twice, once to switch back to keyboard control and once again to close the map.

Is there a best way to handle this utilization of a chat pad and not require extra clicks? I realize this is a very unique question. I would even be willing to relearn some things to try my own hands at a plugin but I am unsure of where to start.
