Brief description of the issue:
Getting two or more traffic alert popups in a row without clearing the first, then hitting clear, will softlock the unit (the display still updates, but does not respond to input from buttons or knobs) until you get another traffic alert popup and then hit enter.

Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
Full repro steps below outside of box, but TL;DR: Get one traffic alert popup, do not CLR, fly to safe range with alert still up, get second traffic alert and now hit CLR. GPS unit softlocks (map display updates but takes no input from knobs or buttons).
Preparation: Turning on traffic alerts, see video 1
- Load flight, preferably with friend, in a plane with the GNS530 and/or GNS430. In this case demonstrated with C172 steam gauge.
- Start aircraft. Boot up the GPS units by pressing enter twice until on the satellite page and then wait for sattelites to be acquired and for the GPS units to switch to the map screen. Turn on ADS-B using the following procedure (using right knobs):
- Rotate small knob right twice to the traffic page, which says STANDBY.
- Push small knob (crsr) and ADS OFF will flash in upper right corner.
- Rotate small knob right so the flashing text says ADS ON?
- Push the ENT button on the unit.
- Push the small knob (crsr) to stop the text from flashing.
- Rotate small to the left until on the map page (second page from the left on the page indication)
Testing: See video 2.
- Find friend.
- Fly close enough to have a traffic alert popup. The options will be CLR to clear it or ENT to clear and go to Traffic page. Notice the other traffic is yellow while very close, then turns white when you go back to a safe distance. On the map screen in the background there will also be a yellow TRAFFIC annunciation in the lower right corner.
- Clear the alert and notice the units still function correctly by turning the knobs to show different pages.
- Fly close enough again to have a traffic alert popup. Do not clear it.
- Fly away to a safe distance (traffic on alert popup turns white instead of yellow and TRAFFIC annunciation on the map in the background disappears. Still do not clear alert.
- Fly close enough again to have the traffic on alert popup turn yellow and see the TRAFFIC annunciation on the map in the background reappear.
- Clear alert by pressing CLR button on unit.
- Try rotating the knobs to change pages or push buttons like direct to, and notice the unit is not responding to inputs. The unit is not fully frozen as the map will still update position, however it does not respond to input.
- Fly close enough to friend again to generate a traffic alert popup. This time press ENT which takes you to the traffic page and dismisses the alert. Check the system is now responding to inputs again by rotating knobs to change pages.
