Fantom software glitch?

Hello all! Just joined up. I have the Fantom 8 and on version 1.11.
Has anyone else noticed an occasional glitch when playing? I am merrily playing away when out of the corner of my eye, there is a flash of blue from the leds that illuminate the 16 in line buttons that enable selection of sound genres and tr-rec. It really is momentary, and as far as I can see, there is no detriment to the sound or settings. It also can randomly reveal itself from some of the control knobs above the line of buttons.
I am usually playing v-piano when it occurs, so there are no wonderful sound enhancements taking place!
I have emailed Roland UK and they say no one has reported this so far......? Any thoughts.

Yes thanks for that. I have now read them. I did not quite know how to drive the forum threads, but now realise that I should have posted with the other remarks. Well, at least I am not the only one with the glitch!
