Woot! I love the smell of success! Congrats!  : )

I take it you mean MagicPrefs:

<https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/33095/magicprefs>

It would definitely be a great idea to email the author about this. I
would also suggest leaving a troubleshooting comment on the macupdate
web site notifying others who use this software who may find themselves
experiencing the same issue.

Great detective work! Glad you finally figured out the cause!
