Communications menu activating randomly

This is actually not a new bug, but the comms menu pops up randomly for me in both MP and SP, and all modules without pressing anything. It seems to be, or might be correlated with mission scripting because it seems to happen more often when overlay text becomes active, either in a training mission or MP picture report. I do not have Easy Radio or the assist for radio activated in the special options menu, and I know what my actual radio bindinds are so that doesn't seem to be the problem. Even further, it happens even if I'm not touching anything.

This isn't exactly a bug report, but I'm thinking this is a known and solved problem so I'm posting to see if there's an an easy and clear resolution before I deep dive. The frequency that the menu pops up for no reason is starting to get annoying. Normal bindinds are fine, but if I try to access F10 menu, or am trying to text chat in an MP server, having that menu up changes things.

Ever used VAICOM with VoiceAttack?
If no,
shutdown DCS, and do a full repair.
If yes,
Make sure VoiceAttack and DCS are both off.
Do a full repair, start VoiceAttack then start DCS, and for the future make sure VoiceAttack is shutdown before opening DCS, and start VoiceAttack before starting DCS.

Cheers!

Will try this. I thought it happened before I ever installed VIACOM Pro but in hindsight, those were when I didn't quite understand the right comms bindings. But since VIACOM Pro, it's been well out of whack.

Uninstalling VIACOM Pro, deleting the App folder within the VoiceAttack plugins folder in program files, plus removing the LUA import line in Saved Games / DCS.OpenBeta / Scripts / Export.lua and deleting the VIACOMPro scripts subfolder is all I did and everything is fine now.

Thanks for the heads up.
