[Resolved] X3 POD Farm 2 issue

THere was always a bug when using POD Farm 2 in X2: when you had a mono track with PF2 running, if you turned it to stereo there would be a 6db increase on the left channel. Simply deleting the plugin and then undo-ing the delete always corrected this.
 
However, in X3 that doesn't work. Nor does the panning inside POD Farm 2 seem to have any effect. Still shaded left. In another track the l/r seems flipped. I have checked the signal path and that is not the problem. In fact, turning off POD Farm2 the behavior is fine.
 
Anyone else?
 
UPDATE:
Grum was correct. That did the trick.

I can concur. I noticed something odd when I installed and had had a quick play this morning but put it down to what was being played into it but unfortunately it does appear to be messed up. I have just had a more detailed fiddle around and the signal is being split - the left side is processed by Pod Farm and the right is not.
 
As Pod Farm is my main amp sim I have gone from being happy as a pig in poo about X3 to feeling rather deflated and concerned that I can't use Sonar to record my guitar - which renders it useless.

I've mended it:
 
Go into Utilities > Cakewalk Plug-in Manager > VST Audio Effects > Pod Farm 2 > Plug-in Properties > disable "Enable mono processing" and select "Force stereo operation".
That seems to do the trick....I'm back to being a pig in poo again
 
Grum.

This has worked for me but the other problem I have is the automation is not working with POD Farm. I tend to use POD Farm mostly for fx like chorus, flange, tremolo and delay because I like the lush and warm sound they have. Anyone know of a work around?
