[A6] hanging note in sequencer - a6 os error ?

hi to all,

has anyone else discovered the following behavior:
i am working in a mix, drum&bass sequences are runing from internal
sync triggered by pressing the respective keys. i have pressed the
sustain pedal to have my hands free for editing, while sequences keep
running. after some time i release the sustain pedal, but not all
sequences stop, i.e. the A6 seems to forget the key-pressed status.
up to now i cannot 100% reproduce the behavior, but i have the
feeling that it is connected to editing the sequencer while its
running ...
what i have _not_ done (but could lead to similar) behavior:
switching key-enable, switching sustain-pedal-enable, switching
midi-chanel, ... just editing !?
to me it seems like a note-on buffer overflow, i.e. some bug in the
OS. yesterday i had a hihat sequence (from the one of
constructionkits) running which i couldn´t stop anymore. well, i
could stop it with the sequencer stop button, but switching back to
start the sequence was still running althoung no keys were pressed.
also switching the mix works, of course ...
who can help ?????

or is it a (imo stupid) feature, it has to be a bug, otherwise i will
sell the A6 and stay with my total analog gear .... ;-) well not at
once ...

should i send this to alesis? was anyone experience with feedback to
them ?

best regards

mjm

remarks: I am a newbee to the A6, approx. 6 weeks, but not at all to
(analog) synths, so you can explain me the deepest most complex
details and i will (hopefully) understand .... gear i use(d):
(juno106,bit01->poor-midi,e6400,atari,)ms10,ms20,cs15,hohnerstrings,pc88,ea1,808,
 and so on ... so i should have some understanding.

i´ve already tried to post this, but somehow it got stuck, because my subscription didn´t work. so, i posted it again, sorry if it will be double ...
