I would just make two small modifications to this suggestion.  First, to
check the hypothesis, try entering the IFQ command (this may be simply
IF with no argument if you are using Joe Wright's specially modified FCP
module).  This will display the current flow state.
 
Second, XIF will not help.  It is flow controlled just like any other
commands and will only clear the flow state back to null if the current
flow state is true.  That is why I added the command ZIF (zero if state).
It clears the flow state to null no matter what the present state is.
