No D-Star RX Callsign shown on Icom IC-E92 with Pi-star

Hi all,

I have a Pi-Star running on a Rasperry Pi 3B, with a DVMEGA Pi-Hat 70cm version, and all works just fine.
The Pi-star version is 4.1.10 / Dashboard: 20250606, according to the dashboard and DVMega firmware is 3.26.

I have discovered a strange little detail, when listening to D-Star traffic via the Pi-Star.

On my Icom IC-E92, the radio doesn't show the RX Callsign of the caller on the display, when a call comes in.
It does however always show the MSG-message on every incoming transmission.

When I turn on my other radios, the IC-7100 and IC-9700, I see that they both show the D-Star RX Callsign of the caller on every transmission.
(still via the same Pi-Star hotspot)

Now, If I listen to incoming D-Star traffic that is NOT coming in via the Pi-Star,
i.e. transmit with a D-Star radio next to the IC-E92,
directly on simplex,
the IC-E92 now shows the RX Callsign perfectly fine on its display on every incoming transmission ?!

Does anyone else has an Icom IC-E92 (IC-92AD in the U.S) and can test and see if your radio behave the same ?
