Sometimes the encoders on the four rotary/pushbutton knobs to the 
left of the main VFO knob stick, and cause the problem of 
nonresponsive buttons.

Try rotating/pushing these four knobs for a while.  This was the 
advice to me from one of the factory guys, and it worked.  I went 
ahead and ordered replacement encoders ($2 each), but I never 
installed them because the rig has worked fine for a year or two 
now after twiddling the controls, and installing the encoders 
does not look like fun.
