[Elecraft] Strange problem when switching modes from VFO A to B

I have VFO A programmed for CW on each band, VFO B programmed for SSB
(makes no difference which sideband ). Power up the K3 on VFO A then
switch over to VFO B and the signal generated is extremely distorted and
sounds like it is being transmitted via a very narrow filter. To
correct this problem simply switch the mode from L or USB to CW and back
again to L or USB. Audio is then restored to normal. I have the
filters programmed correctly, the 2.7KHz filter is used for transmit. I
am using the ESSB mode with a 4 KHz filter. This problem is independent
of band.
I mentioned this to Gary who passed it onto Lyle and who was unable to
make it happen. I am using firmware 2.38 DSP 1.92. I am waiting for an
update which will fix the turn on audio spike before updating.
Any suggestions ? It is just a nuisance getting a report of who is that
calling!!!
