Did you submit this to Zendesk? If so, what is your ticket #? No

Do you have the virtual co-pilot in use to handle ATC comms?
Are you interacting with the ATC window when that happens?

They already stated this:

Are you above FL180 when it happens? That’s the bottom of class A airspace (in U.S.) which requires IFR flight only. I wonder if they’ve programmed that something other than “VFR” has to be in the transponder if you’re at/above FL180.
Just food for thought.

So I checked my settings, no AI or ATC activated. Removed the mods for the TBM930 and G3000. I still get the codes changing in flight. I tried the Cessna 172 G1000 setup and that aircraft did not change codes in flight. Thoughts? I did remove the TBM and reinstall it.

So I am also having issue with COM1 on VATSIM. It won’t transfer a set freq.
