TLDR : When I wake my KA1 by opening the sleep cover, I have to touch the screen once before the device responds to my inputs. Is that a standard behaviour ?

Hi all,

I own a Kobo Aura One and I am very satisfied so far. However, I have a little problem, and I hope you can help me with it.

I bought a case (this one) for my device. I use the "sleepcover" fonction (the device goes to sleep when I close the cover and wake up when I open it). Everything seems to work fine, except for one little thing:

When my Kobo wakes up, the screen does not respond immediatly. I have to touch it once before I can do anything (turn page, open menu, etc.). Also, if I am at the beginning of a new chapter, the screen goes black for an instant when I first touch it (I think it refreshes itself, since I set my device to "refresh screen every chapter"). Note that the problem occurs only when I woke the Kobo by opening the cover. If I press the power button, everything works fine.

Did you notice a similar behaviour with your own device/sleepcover ? Is it something that I can fix ? (It is not very annoying, but still...) I am using firmware 4.6.10075, since the reading stats don't work with 4.7.10413 (and Kobo stopped the roll out of 4.8.10956).

Thank you for your answers !
