Root swype stops working

I use swype. But every now and then (often enough that is becoming annoying) it'll stop letting me swype a word in. Instead when you do the swype gesture, the border around the keyboard flashes twice. You can still type in letters individually, but aren't able to swype. The current workaround is changing back to standard keyboard input, and then back to swype.

This has happened on every single ROM I've used for long enough (cyanogenmod 6.0 -> 6.1.1, oxygen rc4 -> rc6, stock htc sense 2.1 and 2.2)

Any ideas?
