I did run into this issue, too. At the end of the "On load" form event i set a flag and run Set timer. In the "on timer" event i check if the flag is still set and if i'm on the page with the web area. If yes, i do WA OPEN URL and clear the flag. My understanding of this is that the web area isn't 'instantiated' until the form page containing it is shown for the first time.
