New wierd K3s behavior

Jim AB3CV
When I turn on my K3s (and let it finish booting) and try pressing TUNE
(hold XMIT) I get a zero power indication rather than tune power if in DATA
A mode.

A quick trip to CW then hitting a few dits on the paddle produces the
expected 100w barefoot power.

Then returning to DATA A and TUNE and the expected tune power is emitted.

No idea why this would occur and it is a new thing. I have recently updated
to the latest beta firmware for the enhanced KPA1500 integration. Perhaps a
bug was introduced there?

Ideas?
