I have this problem as well. No transport lights until shift is cycled.

The color selection of the lights has also been broken for a long time.

To help you narrow the issue: It only happens to me outside of LogicX, and it happens every time I switch apps. For example in Safari I have buttons defined around the wheel, they only light up when you press shift twice.

Every time I alt-tab to another app (that is not locked to the surface) the lights disappear.
