Yes, 2.7.3 would probably fix it. I now remember that there was a bug in 
2.7.2 that caused the controller to stop working on OS X machines if you 
have assigned a menubar to the stack. It was fixed in 2.7.3. I'll bet 
that's what is happening. In the mean time, if you want to continue 
using 2.7.2, you can create a substack that holds your menubar instead 
of placing the group directly on the main stack.

I'm surprised I forgot that bug, because it affected one of my projects 
as well.
