Codemeter and El Capitan

Every time I close the lid the mac thinks CM is a disk which is not ejected properly. From that point it will not recognise CM in that port without a restart.
Any suggestions about how to resolve this really irritation problem?
Thanks

It appears to me that there is a bug in the driver. This problem happens even when I eject the key normally. If you select "About this Mac" from the Apple menu, click "System Report", and then click Hardware > USB, you can see that a Codemeter device remains connected to the USB port after it has been removed and you will no longer be able to use it on that port until you restart. You can switch to another port, but the same behaviour will repeat until you run out of unused ports.

My previous post

"There is a CmRuntimeUserKEXT3G_5.22.1514.502.dmg download which now seems to fix all the issues.
No more missing drive incorrectly ejected
No more a missing Codemeter after sleep or closing the lid."

Was not correct. Still loosing the Key connection after sleep .... frustrating
