when running 'synclient TouchpadOff=0 from terminal the led on my 'clickpad' is properly enabled, e.g a light turns on in the left corner telling me the touchpad is off. When setting the indicator to use synclient in extension.js, it properly disables the touchpad but the led indicator never comes on.

At the same time, I can manually double tap the 'clickpad' to disable it and the led status indicator turns on, and then use the synclient command from terminal and everything communicates properly, i.e if I turn it off manually and then run the command to turn it on, it comes on and the light goes off, and vise versa.

Let me know if you need any more info.
