Well...it's not a complete fix, but if you obtain a nylon washer with an 
inside diameter that will pass the shaft and an outside diameter that is 
  about the size of the knob or slightly smaller, you can put it over 
the shaft and it will help hold it straight. I found appropriate washers 
at my local hardware store.
