That would be because it is fully automatic:
From the Longitude manual:
Ground Spoilers
The ground spoiler system includes all six spoiler panels and is a fully automatic system that does not
require any pilot action.
Ground spoilers deploy automatically when wheel speed is greater than 35 knots and both throttle levers are at approximately idle. The ground spoilers automatically retract below 30 knots, or when the throttles are advanced away from idle. In addition to aiding in slowing the plane, the ground spoilers also reduce lift, increasing the weight on the nose landing gear for optimal steering and braking effectiveness. Ground spoilers extend the spoiler panels 60 degrees.
In the event of a loss of hydraulic power, the ground spoiler hydraulic accumulators will retain enough
charge to power the ground spoilers upon landing or during a rejected takeoff. When the accumulators
are depleted, ground spoilers will no longer function.
Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it?
No.
Have you disabled/removed all your mods and addons?
Yes (have none).

Took your advice, but no joy! I landed at UHPP and touched down normally but ground spoilers did not deploy. Lever remained in the up position while I was taxiing and still above 60 K . I had to manually deploy them.

Speed Break not functioning on ground or touch down, spoiler or speed break control on throttle quadrant visibly functions in cockpit but panels on wing are not working occassionally on ground pre take off outbd speed break panels move a small amount my guess less than 5 degrees on the upper wing skin area.
