v2.0 Mouse button 4 & 5 stop working

Intermittenly, for no reason

from Stardock Forums

I'm using Multiplicity 2.0 with primary running Windows 7. I have been experiencing a problem where after I left my computer for a long time (overnight, for example), when I come back, I can't switch machine using mouse button 4 and 5. However, if I scroll the cursor off the screen edge of the primary, then I can control the secondary no problem. Even stranger, once I'm able to control the secondary, mouse button 4 and 5 now work correctly and can switch control between the two computer.

Is this a known issue?

That's not an issue we've seen.

Can you email support@stardock.com so we can look into this further?

Does your machine go to sleep during this long period, or does it remain on?

Do you have to unlock it after this time too?

Tested this some more. It seems that when the secondary machine goes to sleep (overnight), it's more likely to happen.

I can control the secondary by scrolling the mouse even if the secondary is locked. Once I do this, I can unlock the secondary machine from my primary.
