exactly what I've been trying. At first the lights are not on, after some time (< 10 minutes) they come on as I showed in my first screenshoot (along the bottom).

just checked mine. Still normal. I don't know why yours would come back after a period of time.

Only thing that came to mind was calibration timing out. On the global tab under common/basic. Look under the check boxes and there's a box that says AClTime. Set that to always and see if that doesn't clear it up. (that's what I have mine set to)

Any problems with the newest version (921)?

AG I was just verifying that what rwalker was seeing I was also seeing. I only recall this happening the last couple of FW flashes but I'm still learning the software. Posted the pics of my flashing steps in case it's not normal and a possible bug.

Otherwise my stick has been fine.

While I haven't specifically timed how long it takes for the buttons to come on, it just "seemed" like about 10 minutes. I see in my settings AclTime is set to 10 minutes. Maybe that isn't a coincidence. I'll try setting it to always and see what happens. AG, I have moved on to 921 yesterday, so, yes, I still see this issue with 921.

ok, so I got home tonight, my computer was turned off. I turned it on, ran Device Config, no buttons lit. This time I decided to time how long the lights would take to come on, one minute later, this:

I'm going to change AclTime to always and reflash.....

The lights came back on :( I did think it was working after setting ACITime to always, the buttons seemed to stay ok for a much longer time. I'm going back to version 1.91E as it seemed to work perfectly for me. Is there any information anywhere that lists what is fixed in each firmware update?

I have the same issue. As a temporary workaround I reconnect joystick.

Or use the Restart button in the Action tab.

I flashed 1.929, it has been about 30 minutes, I tried a quick dogfight in DCS and mapped the brake button. So far so good but a little more time will tell....

*Update* Still working....

Not seeing the multiple buttons pressed issue at any of the flashing steps so far in v1.929. Took a couple of hops. Will leave the test screen up for a bit and see what happens.

Update: Had left VKBDevconfig up overnight. Button press issue didn't return. (in my case it never had but tested it anyway)

Saviour! This will definitely need to make it to the News feed on the website.

I have this exact same issue with the latest 1.921. I'll try the FW version posted in this thread to see if it fixes it.
