Rage on Auto Busted?

Usually I have to manually click my auto-skills once or twice to get them to work. Zoning usually helps too. I've noticed going into Wents seems to cause them to quit going off automatically.
I notice that my auto-powers have recently stopped activating until I start fighting something. Typically I put hasten on auto, and now it'll only go off if I activate something else. I'm not sure if this is a bug or a new feature...
When it stops going auto, I find I have to manually trigger it, then it will go auto once more. Granted, thats until it the next time I'm idle and not in combat. I've bugged this, but I suspect it's a feature to prevent auto-spamming powers at the market.
The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.

Hit 'escape'. It's been busted for awhile now on non-attack powers (e.g., Hasten, not Power Blast).
As far as I can tell, if you have something "untargetable" targeted, it fails to fire because it's trying to "attack" whatever it was you had targeted (regardless of it is still targeted at the time, such as, say, a Contact you've moved out of range of).

I think the problem (or cure) is with Went. I think it may be some kind of power suppression to prevent people in Wents from spamming powers (like AOE heals). When you get enough people in there doing all kinds of things it gets really annoying.
Tho the black market is far worse at times with this. Since you have all those PSW doms that fail to turn it off.
I noticed this effect on Boost Range on my Energy/Energy blaster. After WW it would no longer auto click, even after I left the zone. However hasten worked when I made that auto instead. Never went back into WW tho, so dunno if that woulda borked it as well.
Powers do not auto-activate if you have something unattackable selected (like, say, the Auction House broker....).

This, it's not really something "untargetable" per se, but more something "unattackable."
If you have a power in the "queue" (red circle around it) it wont do the power until that one is shot off first.

It doesn't have anything to do with power suppression at the markets. It's a known bug and it has something to do with zoning. i.e. when you zone, the power stops auto-firing, and doesn't start again until you enter combat next.

It's not even that, because I can hit my button for "target nearest enemy" and it will trigger, even if there are no enemies to target and nothing comes up.

This behavior long predates the market. It's been going on at least since I5.

It's nice that it's not been something you've experienced or noticed, but I've been experiencing the situation where a power set on auto stops firing and you have to click it to get it going again since before we had CoV. I can't say exactly when, but since I6 release was simultaneous with CoV's, I called it I5.

I have a SS/Fire brute, today I noticed that when I have rage on auto it will fail to auto the power and I have to manually click it to actually work.
I have tried other powers like hasten and they work fine (it will auto no problem).
Is this a known bug or issue?
Edit: Actually, I have now tried to auto 'burn' and 'Consume' and the auto fails to trigger.
Thanks,
