Yes, I'm using SVGA extension cables ($2.80 @Cable Wholesale) that are straight through. The male) ends have the the unneeded/unused pins broken out. I had missed removing a pin 8. It's gone now and all is well.

Did you check the VGA cable to make sure that all pins were straight-through 
and none connected together? Standard VGA cables break this rule and have 
several common pins. This, of course will wreak havoc with the AUX IO system 
since it requires all pins to be separate. It also means that some things will 
be connected improperly on the KPA500 (or the K3) which will give very 
unpleasant surprises.

Thanks.  I use a VGA cable, modified by breaking off the unneeded pins. I 
missed one.

Nope. You need to check the aux io cable. I would bet the power-on pin is 
connected on both sides. It should not be. Fix that and the KPA should behave 
normally.
