Afterburner OSD toggle?

I've been using afterburner for a while on my HIS 7950 BOOST IceQ.
It generally seems fine as long as it decides to actually start with Windows like I've asked it to.

I'm having one slight issue though, I'm trying to use the OSD to display some info on-screen while gaming.
Now I've setup up a OSD toggle keyboard shortcut, but this didn't seem to work. I then noticed that you could (or presumably, had to) select which values you wanted displayed in the overlay. So I did this and the values now display. However now the toggle doesn't work and I can't disable the OSD. I have to go into the settings and unselect each item from displaying on the overlay.
What am I doing wrong?

I'm using the latest non-beta Afterburner, if that makes a difference.
The game I've tried it in was Guild Wars 2, but I can't imagine that makes a difference does it?
 
Try re-setting the toggle key. Change it for example from F7 to F8. Then click ok. Then close afterburner in the taskbar and then restart it. Does it work now? Had a similar issue and the above fixed it.
 
As above. I would set no keys for "show" and "hide", so next to these it should have "none" set and then I would re-set and apply your desired toggle key.

I was going to tell you to amend the riva tuner server settings for it to launch specifically with the gw2.exe but I played GW2 and it works fine for me so no need to do this.
