@brown-kaew I'm considering this low priority because it never has been reported by anyone else. also 1.5.0.RC3 is what we consider the latest available version. thanks a lot for the research, it would be great if you can also suggest a fix and perhaps contribute a PR

@ptrthomas It is the first PR I have created, if there is anything wrong please kindly advise.
