[Bug] Use flip cover to control display of Jolla tablet

I don't know if it is only my Jolla tablet and lastu case but the magnetic sensor seems not working fine. When the feature is switched on in display settings the display reacts weird.

Sometimes when opening the cover the display stays black. Mostly when opening the cover the display switches on and goes black again after one or two seconds. Then also double-tap does not wake it. I need to use the power button to wake the display again.

Can anyone with the magnetic lastu case for the jolla tablet confirm this behavior?

EDIT: I realized that the magnetic switch inside the jolla tablet also reacts to a magnetic field on the back of the device. When I remove the tablet from the plastic protector of the lastu case and cover the front of the tablet with the wooden lastu case side opening and closing the cover activates and deactivates the display correclty. - So the magnets in the back of the lastu case does influence the magnetic switch also.

A solution would therefore be a second sensor which could detect that the cover is actually opened or closed when the magnitic switch detects a change. Could that be the ambient light sensor if it is covered by the cover, too?
