Ekos Alignment problem with AstroPhysics 1600GTO

Hello,
I am experiencing a relatively recent problem when using Astrometry to Sync or Slew to Target in Ekos. If I connect to the mount. set Sync under the Alignment tab, then, Capture and Solve, the program will image, solve and appear to Sync the target object. However, after that time, the mount will no longer move by Slew or Track.

At first, I thought the cables or other comms were bad. But, if one uses the INDI Control Panel, Motion Control Tab, I can move the mount using the North, South, East, and West buttons. Any additional attempts to slew or track to a target cause the telescope icon to move, but not the telescope.

If after initial startup, I simply slew or track to a target, the mount will work and the telescope will slew or track to the target. The problem seems to have started in the last 30-60 days. Any thoughts, help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Best wishes,
Dan
