I've just tested Mednafen standalone Saturn emulator, it has no SOCD issue at all. So can confirm this is Beetle-Saturn core porting issue only. And IIRC about a year ago the old Beetle-Saturn core doesn't have this issue, just recently half a year ago in one of the updated, the SOCD issue suddenly appeared and stick to the current.
A workaround you could try before this is properly fixed is to set the emulated controller as a "3D Control Pad". This fixed this issue for me on Dark Savior and Guardian Force.
It seems like Mednafen Saturn core forgot to add D-pad SOCD Cleaner, this is built-in feature in any other cores/standalone-emulators. Without SOCD Cleaner, a lot of Arcade-port games will be totally unplayable, especially most of CPS-2 games are fighting-genre, it totally broken the gameplay.
