UAD Meter Problem

I've been having an ongoing problem with my UAD compressors, where the meters work at first and then they just stop working. The compressors still function, I just can't see what's happening via the meters.
 
I recall reading somewhere that this is a known problem in terms of the way UAD works with Sonar.
 
True? Is there a fix?
 
Thank you.

    Hi. I have not seen this before. Are you on the latest version?
    Sorry to be of no help.
    All the best.

    Latest version of Sonar?...yup.
    Latest version of UAD plugins?...not sure. I think so. I haven't seen anything about newer versions or updates.

    If you open your UAD control panel, it will show if updates are available.

    Yup...update available. But this has been going on for a long time. I'll update and see what happens.

    I've been seeing this for years and have been unable to fix it, although the great news is that I haven't seen it since about the May or June updates. So fingers crossed, maybe it's gone. It was never a permanent problem - if you save the project and re-open it the UAD meters start working again.
     
    There still seem to be oddities with SPLAT and some plugin UIs, for example VacuumSound do a free ADT plugin that simply won't display a proper UI although it all works fine with Reaper.
