Flyinside, P3D, and Pilotedge problem

I have PTT assigned to a button on my joystick via FSUIPC,
This work fine if I am using my regular monitor, but if I use Flyinside to run P3D, the mic remains keyed all the time (I apologize to the controllers and the other users, I was not aware this was happening). I tried changing button, but the problem remains.
If I assign PTT directly via PE to a keyboard key it then works fine, but this is not very convenient using the Oculus.

I run PE, FI, and P3D as administrator.

Has anybody had the same problem? Any possible explanation?

Thanks!

That's the most painful thing about a stuck mic, the only person who doesn't know it's happening is the person with the stuck mic (unless you have a TX indicator).

Can you try mapping the joystick button to a key press instead of the native PTT function since you reported that the keypress was working? I can see why this might not fix the problem, but it is worth a shot.

Thanks Keith, I'll give it a try.
And no, my PE client doesn't show the radio widget anymore (not sure why), so I really have no way to know if I am transmitting.
It would be nice to have some audio or visual feedback when the PTT button is activated.
