Hi,

I turned on BRLTTY prererences menu/braille indicators part the blinking 
cursor setting with yes value.
After I close the preferences menu, the new setting doesn't applying 
right I think, independent to I doing a full system restart. The cursor 
dots7 and dots8 dots doesn't blinking.
Because I already setted the save on exit possibility with yes value, 
the preferences saved into /var/lib/brltty/brltty.prefs file.
The preferences file containing following settings:
save-on-exit yes
show-submenu-sizes no
show-advanced-submenus no
show-all-items no

I using Ubuntu 14.04, packaged BRLTTY version is 5.0-0ubuntu1.
Brltty -V returning following informations:
BRLTTY 5.0 rev 5477 [http://mielke.cc/brltty/]
brltty: Copyright (C) 1995-2014 by The BRLTTY Developers.

If anybody not confirming this issue, very suspicious me the new 
packaged BRLTTY version, possible my system have a corruption.
The oldest Trusty packaged 4.5-3ubuntu3 BRLTTY version I doesn't see 
previous this issue.
