Pluto inconsistently sees no signal #1

Sometimes both the forward and backward RX channels show no signal. This is either a failure to TX or mis-mapping of RX channels. I don't remember exactly what I saw when I encountered this issue a couple weeks ago but I remember questioning if the input MUX inside the Pluto was selecting the wrong ports resulting in no (or extremely low) signal.

This seems related to an issue John Kraft had a couple years ago:

It is possible this was resolved in a firmware update since 2022 (I haven't updated firmware in ages)
