AdvanceMenu not remembering last selected game

[behrmr]

I have been experimenting with AdvMenu on Windows and actually really like the nice, simple, clean interface.  The "problem" I am having is that after I select a game and play it under MAME and exit MAME, AdvanceMenu does not go back to that game in the menu list.  What it does is go back to the second game in the list every time. 

What's odd is that if I completely exit AdvanceMenu and restart it, then it does remember the last game highlighted.  Does anyone know if there is a workaround?  It's more of an irritation than a real problem because games are listed alphabetically so let's say you play Wonder Boy and then you go back to the menu and your sitting at 1941 (the game not the year).

For anyone who may be having this problem here is the solution that I came up with.    I changed the event key for game selection to 1 which is mapped to P1 start in my installation.  Since I was using the 1 and had event_alpha set to yes in my advmenu.rc file, AdvanceMenu was performing both actions dutifully.  E.g. it was starting the highlighted game and then repositioning at the first game in the list that matched the alpha assignment 1 So after I exited from the game it would always position on the 10-yard fight game in the list.

Below are the advancemenu.rc entries that correct the problem

event_assign enter enter or enter_pad or 1
event_alpha no
