KStars 3.5 no longer updating location from my mount. (SOLVED)

KStars 3.5 not updating from my mount. I'm not sure if this is my error, or a new bug in 3.5.
I have the option in EKOS set to update KStars from the Mount. I have been using that setting with my mounts with no problem, but with KStars 3.5 it stopped.



Here's the pertinant part of the log, but the whole log is also attached.
This looks like KStars was updated - but in fact it was not. I had to go in and set my location manually.

Tried again tonight. Nothing I did would allow my mount's GPS to update KStars.
I tried "allow mount to update KStars" and I tried the option to update via the GPS.
Neither worked. I could see the correct longitude that my mount put out - but KStars refuel to act to update with it.
Each time I had to go into KStars and manually update the location. And worse - KStars would not keep this proper Longitude after launching INDI.
So every time I start INDI I have then go in to KStars and update the location, as INDI erases the correct location and overwrites it with an erroneous one (and not the one it says it is writing)!

The mount is the iOptron CEM120.

Can anyone suggest how to fix this?
