Wah Block Activates By Itself

Earlier today I was practicing w/ my Axe FX II, loaded up a patch that had a wah block in it (But not activated or set to use with my expression pedal) and suddenly I noticed my sound got really weird. I look at the Axe FX and a wah block activated itself. None of the pedals were active and I was no where near my foot controller.

I recall that same sound happening when I first loaded up 7.0 (official release, not beta) but I thought that maybe it was just a glitch because I had axe-edit open at the time. I don't know if I can call this a bug but I thought that it was a good place to put this.
 
Strange, I have this problem also with all my v7 Presets????
They all have a Wah in them, Not activated, but they are all set up to use my Exp Pedal and a Medium Auto-Engage???
Even if they are not activated after a few seconds my sounds go strange....
I have to go into the Wah Block, switch off the Auto-Engage parameter, then Activate/De-Activate the Wah Block and then everything is ok....

Do I have to do this for every single Preset I have, I only went through about 15-20 of them so far and they were all like that!??
 
Same situation here. So far I did not find any global solution that would fix all the presets. I,deal,with the issue preset per preset .
 
Ok my situation is similar. Many of my patches have two wahs. One uses the expression pedal, the other is a MFC footswitched wah that uses the envelope controller it. If I'm playing as I switch patches the envelope following wah will engage, but if I'm silent when I switch patches the wah does not engage. The wah controller is not set to autoengage.

Anybody have these symptoms where playing during the patch change activates an effect?
