@Eric-Katzfey I am having a similar problem, where I can see obstacle_distance, but not obstacle_distance_fused using the listener command. When I checked CP_DIST it was set to -1 so I set it to 1 and then I could briefly see both with the listener command, and was able to see obstacle_distance using the mavlink inspector. After unplugging then replugging in my pixhawk, this was gone and I was back to only being able to see obstacle_distance with the listener command. Was there something that could've changed during my restart? I checked CP_DIST and it was still set to 1 even afterwards.

The only notable differences between my system and the original users is that my connection is across ethernet.
