Okay, I think I have an idea of what's going on in the situation from comment #57. When you load the module without the hotkey support, events can still be happening but they never get read from the bios. By the time you've unloaded the old module and loaded the new one, enough events have come in to completely fill the bios's buffer, therefore when you start reading events all of the objects have been initialized and reading the events does not trigger the exception. Unfortunately, that doesn't help us work around your issue.
