Hello,
I’d like to report the following two bugs which occasionally comes back, and they have returned again in the latest updates.
I should mention that I fly in VR, so I don’t know if this only happens when flying in VR and that I only use the B737 PMDG so I'm not sure this affects all aircrafts, but it does affect all my flights unfortunately. Simbrief is always properly connected.

First bug: when I pre-select the airport parking stand during final approach (well below 10,000 ft), sometimes when I reach the parking spot the ground services are not active (not even the marshaller is present). Other times, I do find the services active upon arrival, but once I shut down the engines and request “deboarding,” everything suddenly deactivates, all vehicles disappear, and I need to use “reset position” before I can finally request deboarding. This behavior only occurs when I make the pre-selection during the approach. If I request the services after landing instead, everything works normally.

The second bug (again in VR, though I don’t know if it also happens in regular screen mode) is that when I select either boarding or deboarding, only the baggage carts animation starts, but no passengers arrive neither the weight is added in the FMC.  To make passengers appear, I have to reopen the GSX menu (I just open it, I don't need to select anything), then I immediately hear the doors opening, the First Officer FMC comes alive with all numbers getting inserted automatically and shortly after the passengers finally arrive.

Please have a look! Thank you
