AirTurn - auto-connect?

I have an AirTurn BT500|S-4 that I use with BH. There config is MacBook Pro (M1 Pro) running MacOS 14.7.4. Lately, every time I get to the gig, I cannot get BH to accept commands from the AirTurn unless I terminate and restart BH.

I am using emulated keyboard commands. Connection from AirTurn to Mac remains solid. But commands don't get to BH until I restart the app, then ensure that I click within the app using trackpad.

If if switch focus to another app, then switch back to BH, commands again do not make it to BH until I restart the app.

Is there anything I can do to fix this? Is there any way to ensure the app will accept commands at any time the AirTurn and there Mac are speaking to each other?

If you turn on Settings > Advanced > Use Alternative Keyboard Handler, does that fix it?

That setting was added in the latest app version 2025-07-11.

Sorry for the delay in responding.

It seemed to work at first. But now I am experiencing an app crash when sending a 'Next Song' via right arrow, when trying to get to the last song in my setlist.

There is more I can do to systematize this error. However, I have a show in under an hour, and I need to get back to some semblance of a working system. I'll report back with more info later.

Well, after disabling 'Use New Keyboard Handler', it is still crashing when trying to advance 'next song' to the last song in the setlist. Quite obviously, more investigation is merited.

I'll just try to remember not to use the pedal to advance to the last song during tonight's show.
