Possible bug with showing notifications when privacy setting "gesture"

Hi all,

I have had my Forerunner 955 solar for a few days now, previously I had the Forerunner 945. I chose the same settings as the 945 when it comes to displaying incoming app notifications: privacy --> gesture.

However, no matter how much I move my arm or tilt my wrist, the message/notification is not displayed.

To rule out a hardware failure, I then set the backlight to "on with gesture", which is more normally set to "off". And voila - the backlight is activated with every movement of the arm or wrist just as expected. And even more interesting: When the backlight is set like this, the messages also appear when I move the arm or wrist.

Can you reproduce this error? I suspect it's a software bug, at least on my 945 it was possible to always leave the backlight off and still have messages appear when privacy was set to gesture.
