iOS - closeCard, going back to main stack and visual effects when using a substack

I am attempting to use a splash screen stack and load several substacks and am running into a problem where the closeCard and OpenCard are not being received when switching to them from other substacks. Is anyone else seeing something like this???

I have:

SplashScreen
	Substack One
	Substack Two
	Substack Three

In Substack One I load an mergMK external that creates a map and when I go from there to card 1 of substack Two the closeCard handler in Substack One does not fire. It should delete the map created in Substack One by accessing the closeCard before moving on to Substack Two. This does work when The Substack One is a main stack and I am going from card to card.

Also, I can not go back to the SplashScreen stack from any of the Substacks using the go command. Is anyone seeing this???

Also, the lock screen for visual effect does not honor the "push left" effect when going from substack to substack. Is anyone seeing this???

on mouseUp
   lock screen for visual effect in rect (the rect of this card)
   go card 1 of stack "Map.livecode"
   unlock screen with visual effect "push left"
end mouseUp


Any help or feedback is greatly appreciated. If these do not work then I need to rethink my entire approach.

Thanks
