SDL_HapticOpenFromJoystick() fails on Windows with DInput device

Hi all,
I tried to search the mail list archives at:
http://lists.libsdl.org/pipermail/sdl-libsdl.org/
but they dont seem to work.

I am using SDL 2.0.3

SDL_HapticOpenFromJoystick() fails.
SDL_Error: Haptic error Setting cooperative level to exclusive

The device is a Logitech MOMO Racing wheel w/FF

The device and Force Feedback work with other programs.
Cheers,
Joe
