backKey with DataGrid

Here's a weird one... I have a card with a number of objects on it. There is a button named "Back" which takes you back to card X. There is also a dataGrid. In the mainStack script, I have a this backKey command:
on backKey
//this is sent only on Android when the user presses the hardware "back" key
if there is a btn "Back" of this card then
send "mouseUp" to btn "Back" of this card in 1 tick
end if
exit to top
end backKey
When the card opens, and you tap the backKey (on an android device of course), it works great! Now, if I scroll the dataGrid, the backKey message fails. If I then tap any other control on the screen (not the dataGrid), then the backKey message works again. This is true even if the dataGrid has no data (ie.: set the dgData of grp "myDataGrid" to "").
I have verified that there is only 1 button named "Back" on the entire card (including the template for the dataGrid).
When I say the "backKey" message fails, what really happens is the statement "if there is a btn "Back" of this card" does result as true, but the sending of the "mouseUp" message isn't sent (or perhaps it's not received). Also, if I just tap the "Back" button it does go back.
Any ideas?
