Jester Not Recognizing my Designated Ground Target

[bonesvf103]

Lately, if I jump in the backseat, find a target, designate it, then jump back in the front seat, Jester immediately drops the target I designated and snaps back to whatever target he was watching before.  If I tell him to track the designated target (QDES) he does not track the target i had designated either.  I don't recall him doing this before.  Am I missing something?  I know my designation went through in the backseat because I see the blank symbology i the LANTIRN replaced with the TTG bar and countdown.  I also tried undesignating and redesignating but it didn't work wither.
