When faced with a mysterious issue related to OS events I've found if 
nothing else works sometimes it's useful to add a timer to allow the OS 
to complete whatever it's doing before doing your next thing.

This seems to work okay from a frontScript:


on resumeStack
   send "UpdatePal" to me in 100 millisecs
end resumeStack

on UpdatePal
   if the short name of the topStack is "sub" then
     show stack "pal"
   else hide stack "pal"
end UpdatePal
