Default radio problem

Has anyone with a GX have problems with the radio shutting off unexpectantly then coming back on. Like it's rebooting? I have a 06 GX with ML. I installed the lockpick hack several months ago with no problem. The radio starting acting up recently. I going to remove the lockpick and see if that's the problem. Let me know if any of you had to the same problem with or without lockpick installed.

It's the lockpick - call it a "feature". It hasn't bothered me enough to remove the lockpick, but if you find a solution, please post. Sometimes I am able to get the radio on with the voice command - it seems to understand "audio on", not much else. Otherwise, I just reboot the whole car.

Yea it is so intermitten that it doesn't require going to the dealer yet. It seems to only effect the radio and not the navigation. Vehicle is still under warranty so that's no problem with a dealer visit, just removing the lock pick before going is the issued big hassel. For now it's been acting okay.
