Doesn’t it happen only when the white dot is centered on one of the flight displays? I’m not familiar with the A330, but a similar bug was introduced with SU3 in aircraft with G1000 displays. I’ve also found it occurs with G3X systems.

1.5.7.0 regression – just looking at the G1000 can make the throttle not work

No. I also thought about what you just mentioned (the fact that the A and B buttons no longer respond when the white dot is on an element), but this is not the case. The A and B buttons no longer respond randomly. Sometimes, I have to click (with the mouse) on the throttle, and then, A and B take back control of the throttle. Sometimes not. Or, if I put myself in outside view, A and B take back control. It is very difficult to determine a pattern for this bug.
