Thumbstick problem

I have a HIN1100 thumbstick connected to a VINT HUB0000.
then USB to a Raspberry Pi running Java 11

Works fine with the Phidget Control Panel, and works fine with the example code supplied. I can see the voltage swinging full range.

However as soon as I apply trigger thresholds (setVoltageRangeRatioTrigger) channel 0 stops working. Ch 1 is fine. If I switch declaration of the axes, then the problem stays with Ch 0.

If I apply a trigger threshold to just ch 0, it works fine. (also if just ch1)

So looks like a bug in the driver?

If I use an ordinary joystick (1113_0) with the same code (plus hub port definitions), its fine.
