Thanks @leonstr for the PR. It was merged right now.

Please, all those you reported this problem, could you try the latest master branch version? Put a reminder on the Moodle version you tried, please, just to confirm that now it works properly, without any problem.

With your ok, I will update Moodle Plugins directory, bumping up its the plugin version.
