Summary
When using the SideScroller Controls device with mostly default settings, players who join a match in progress (JIP) may not have their movement constrained to the Forward axis and can move along the Left axis.

Additional Notes
I also tried to force the SideScroller Controls device to apply its controls to the JIP player by calling its AddTo method in Verse from the Playspace.PlayerAddedEvent handler, but the issue still occurs.
