Reset button no long cancels a print and MMU load never times out

Hey guys I finally got my MK3 and MMU2 upgraded to the "S" versions.

Two main issues I'm having right now and I'm hoping someone can help. I controlling my printer with the latest version of octoprint. It's the same version I've been using since before I upgraded.

1. Since I've upgrade the reset button will not cancel a print. It does reset the printer but after it starts back up it tries to resume the print. Before I upgraded the reset button would reset the printer and the print would be canceled. It would not try to resume again. When I hit that button it's because something is wrong. I do not want to automatically resume printing after this. A full power down is not the answer either as I usually have filament in the nozzle and need the printer on so I can heat/remove the filament before it cools and causes a jam.

I know I can cancel in octoprint but this does not work either because octoprint want to finish what's it doing before it will cancel.  So for example, if I want to cancel because the filament it not loading and instead just grinding away the cancel button in octoprint is useless because it won't cancel until the filament finishes loading. I have let the MMU sit and grind away but it never times out or quits. 

Which bring me to the second issue. The MMU2S does not seem to ever timeout. It just keeps grinding away for hours and hours. For example last night I canceled a failing print using octoprint. It was the middle of the night and I was in bed. I have setup octoprint to unload filament after I cancel a print to help avoid jams. Last night there was a situation where there the filament had gotten stuck so rather than unload the MMU just ground a spot down so it could not pull the filament back. Well this morning literally 6 hours later the MMU was still grinding away trying to unload the filament and octoprint was still trying to cancel.

Shouldn't there be some kind of timeout on this? I get it likes to retry but for 6 hrs, really?

So 6 hrs later I hit the reset button on the printer and it reboots then immediately goes back to trying to print.

Would someone please advise if there is a better way to quickly and immediately cancel a print and not have it trying to resume itself automatically?
