Hi jpmayo.
The driver works as a daemon, so it is normal that you have to run it on each boot for the mapping to work. Also is it normal to run it as root, because of the default properties of the HID files in /dev (only readable by root).

Put it before the exit statement. It should be enough to make it work.
Hope this helps
