Explorer 8300HDC - Alerts not working properly?

I noticed on my 8300HDC, every one of the Amber Alerts that was sent through stopped suddenly after about 5 seconds or so... and just now the "scroller" was activated without any alert tone or audio at all.

Anyone else see the same thing? Buggy routine in Mystro to handle alerts?

I don't know about OCAP boxes, but for Mystro I had one of those Alert things that got stuck in a loop and didn't go away.  If you ever get a crawler like that and it's not gone in 10 minutes, reboot your box,  Most of the time, it will just disappear in shortly after the announcement.
