SC2813 with IBKR Gateway

During overnight session I use SC to backtest a trading system on older data.
For this I explicitly disconnect SC, i.e. File >> Disconnect.

This should prevent SC from downloading any market data for any symbol.

However, I upgraded SC from 2812 to 2813, and now SC is downloading market stream data for the symbol I am testing, while being disconnected.

This should not occur.

Historical data will be downloaded for symbols supported by Sierra Chart historical data servers, even when disconnected. But no real-time or or streaming delay data will be received.
