LR 172 With G5 Not Working

I recently purchased the G5 package that comes with the 172 for X-Plane 11. However, after installing, when I load that plane for use, the G5s are blacked out - they very occasionally flash on super quick then go back to black. When I try to open any of the pop-up menus from the shortcuts that appear on the right side of the screen they flash on and off rapidly. Any fixes for this?

OK, turning off Vulcan got the G5s to come on. However, the GNS-430 and ADF are still black.  The 530 comes on, but not the lower 430?

 

Those are X-Plane avionics and should turn on when both avionics switches are on I believe?

They do not - the 2nd navcom & adf are now black in inop.  Has anyone else experienced this glitch?  A bit frustrating for a paid for app.

To be clear, the avionics you're having issues with are not "paid" for and are driven by stock X-Plane.

Frustrating, yes. But, there seems to be something driver related at play here.

Are you sure both avionics switches (there is a dual rocker switch) are turned on, as well as the full Master switch?

Yes,  everything that is supposed to be on is on.  When I use an Arrow I also have with a G430 and Narco 12, both radios work.  It seems to be an issue with the 2nd Garmin, but wasn't there before downloading this G5 package.
