Bug with Plugin-Alliance new bx_console - ATTN Cakewalk

I just got the new Plugin-Alliance (P.A./Brainworx) bx_console plugin.   This thing is AMAZING.  I have almost all the console plugs by UAD and waves and this is just the smoothest best sounding one overall with some very cool new technology!  (go here read up and download the trial: https://plugin-alliance.com/)   
 
ISSUE: The bx_console is supposed to generate a mono instance for mono channels and stereo instance for stereo channels.  That said, I reported an issue to P.A. that in SONAR,  the bx_console only renders stereo version regardless of the track being mono.   Fortunately the plugin still works but its just not how it should be.    Here is the reply from Jeremy from The Plugin Alliance Support Team.    According to him, this is only a Sonar bug (figures...)
 
Any insight from either Cakewalk or users?   Thanks!

Hi Allen Lind,

Just wanted to let you know that I did verify this bug on my end, so I will report it to the dev team and hopefully we'll have a fix for it in a future version.
 
I still think you should try contacting Cakewalk as well, as they might be able to provide some insight into why this only seems to happen in Sonar.
 
 
Cheers,

Hi Allen,

Thanks for the info.  I'll investigate this issue on my end, and if we do find a bug, it will be fixed in a future version.  I'll let you know if we make any progress.  In the meantime, I'd recommend you also contact Cakewalk about this to see if they have any suggestions.
 
Also, keep in mind that if you switch the analog mode to "Digital," the left and right will be processed exactly the same, which means that it will be effectively the same as mono (assuming the input is mono).  The only difference is that there might be an increase in cpu usage.

Right which is why maybe I put it here as Cakewalk (they read this forum) might have some other (casual) insight even though the issue actually is on PA's end.  I think having PA fix it may not be too high a priority for them since Sonar currently seems to be off their radar.   Actually Jeremy from PA might sort of be looking for a hint from CW as in a previous thread he said he was very unfamiliar w/Sonar which is also why I gave my little dissertation as to how great it is and it will (hopefully) get more popular!   More popular = better 3rd party support which unfortunately Sonar lacks for some reason and seems to be an afterthought for many companies.   This is just another example.

Nice!!  I'll pass this along! Thank you for the GREAT work!

Yes there was a problem with mono VST3 plugins that was reported to us by the EIOSIS developer and I fixed it.
I assume you are referring to the VST3 version of the plugin? It should work in VST2...

Hmmm. I wonder if that will fix this similar problem that I reported in this thread:
http://forum.cakewalk.com/Problem-with-Voxengo-VST3-and-Sonar-Platinum-m3244995.aspx
The problem occurred when the vst3 was used in mono.
