Has anyone ever been able to get remote plate solving working on the Astroberry?

I have been trying to help a friend who can't get this to work. He is using Kstars for Windows connecting remotely to Astroberry. Meanwhile for me it has worked just fine on Stellarmate. Then a few days ago I confirmed again it works on my setup with Stellarmate, but when tried it on my setup using my own Astroberry, I get the same problem: message is returned almost immediately "plate solve failed, try again". The error message is so immediate, I doubt it's trying to plate solve, it's failing for some other reason.

Though our setup details are different (different cameras, mount), the general setup and results are the same:

Setup:
1. RPi running Astroberry connected to cameras, mount
2. Running Kstars on Windows, remotely connecting to indi server on Pi
3. All necessary drivers selected (cameras, mount, astrometry)
4. Plate solving set to remote

Results:
1. Remote plate solving fails, instantly
2. Local plate solving (on the Astroberry through VNC connection) works
3. On my setup remote plate solving works with Stellarmate (my friend does not have a Stellarmate to check with)

So, has anyone ever gotten remote plate solving working on the Astroberry?

Thank you.
