Dear Petr,

Thanks a lot for detail description of the problem. It helped me to
understand the problem, however, it will take some time to fix it and
push to the server. Meanwhile, could you try logging out and in again to
the same session? In my case this helped to get around the problem.

Hope this helps,
Andrius
