Nexdome Slaving strange behavior. Is this a bug or a feature?

I just found a strange behavior with the Nexdome driver. The dome stops rotating when slaving clockwise, after the dome rotation position reaches 359 degrees AZ. Instead of going on to 0 degrees and then starting over with 01 degrees, it hangs up with the dome status saying "the dome is moving". I noticed it two nights ago and now again tonight. This time, I waited and watched it once it reached 358 degrees. As soon as it tried to advance again it just froze up at with the dome status saying that it was "moving". I waited 20 minutes and the dome never moved again. So I pressed the "abort" button and it immediately moved to the correct slave position of 12 degrees AZ.

Is this a feature that I need to adjust somewhere?

Any Nexdome logs? INDI uses "steps" to move to an absolute position so perhaps it got stuck on some value.
