New Edge 530 SW 9.50 Sensor Drop that I didn't had with Edge 130

Hello,

Bought a new 530 that came with SW 9.40 and after started and connected to Garmin Connect it automatically upgraded to SW 9.50.

I can see a lot of drops for the Garmin HR sensor in the Heart Rate Graphic and even more in the Respiration Rate Graphic. Some times I got a alert that the HRM was doping. 

It was worst with MTB then in the Road bike or the trainner

MTB -> Phone Connected + Garmin HRM DUAL, I was mainly in the Map Screen  

Road -> Phone Connected + Garmin HRM DUAL + Stages left crank power meter and cadence + Varia 515 + Live Track ON + Navigating doing a saved course but always in the "Sensor" Screen

Trainer -> Garmin HRM DUAL + TACX VORTEX + old ANT Speed and Cadence Garmin sensor

I didn't had this drop problems with a Edge 130 using the same sensors in any of the riding/training scenarios.

For what I've learn browsing this forum, this is a SW problem (I hope).

What is the best SW version to be on that doesn't have this issues? 9.10? where can I get it?

Please, guys from Garmin can you tell us if you know of this problem and if a solution is coming?

Thank you.
