I have the exact same problem, glad to see it's not just me. I can't
remember when it started doing it, but I think it's quite recent, maybe
a week or two, something like that.
Given the visibility and impact of that bug, the devs sure noticed it
and are working on it... well I hope, but better make sure the bug is
filed in Malone...
