Sending Radio Freqs via BT to ATR-33 using an SD-Link dongle fails after SD Upgrade to V 4.3.0

We used this great feature to send radio frequencies from the SD nav-display to the radio by using a BT connection between the iPad (runs SD) and our radio (ATR-33) using an SD-Link dongle now since almost 2 years. We really appreciate this feature as it reduces head down time by a significant amount.
Now, since about 2 weeks, this isn't working anymore. Touching a frequency in SD, just a short info appears on the screen what station this frequency belongs to. That's it.
A quick check to find the possible reason didn't turn out anything - the hardware connection between radio and dongle is secure, BT on the iPad is ON and the connection within SD and the SD-Link seems to be established, as it appears in the SD Settings/Connectivity/BT-Devices. However, we renewed this connection, but to no avail.
Funny though, that this failure introduced itself after we upgraded to SD Version 4.3.0.

Anybody any ideas?
