I had the same problem during my time. It is most likely caused by incomplete/buggy joypad emulation. There was once some talk about various similar issues with games but they were not fixed to my knowledge.

However to avoid waiting till appropriate release, I "fixed" this particular problem by disabling dynarec. (Don't ask why it worked for me but it worked.)
Note: I also used the keyboard directly without any pad software.

That atleast is how I got past the moon stone mine. The game works fine till the end after that, but you can't get the downloadable goodies for what I know.

If someone knows how to get them (if currently possible) I'd be more than happy to know.

I'm not 100% sure but I believe that this problem was sorted out on recent BETAs.

There were other reports about the problem in the past but since most people were using downloaded rips of the game that could be "bad" (and illegal) we weren't sure of the exact cause.
If we had more people describing the exact problem they are having and if there is a way to circumvent it (like ScripterX did in his post above) our job would be MUCH easier.

In sort:

This game does not Work" <-- That does not help us fix the problem.

but

"This game has this issue when you reach that part of the game. It happens on Interpreter and Dynarec and it can't be fixed by using different plugins and options." <-- That helps us fix the problem.

Razi says that it works fine with the Dynarec enabled... on BETA 2.
So yeah, the bug is already fixed on private builds.
