Not sure if this is similar to your Rainbow Islands report, but again the slave has its own CD32 pad support. As mentioned in the other report:

"Using buttons from a joypad ($103..$10a/$113..$11a) as a QuitKey will make it impossible for the installed program to detect/check/use a joypad. The installed program will think a joystick is connected. This is because of some hardware limitations that the joypad can only checked once during a 1/50 second. So dont use it for games which require a joypad."

I'm less certain why pressing Play would quit you to workbench in this situation - but it could be interference from WHDL doing CD32 pad reads itself. Again, solution should be the same as Rainbow Islands - override quitkey with a keyboard code like $59/$5d, so slave's own CD32 pad support can work again.

Unfortunately the keyboard quitkey workaround doesn't help here. It helps to prevent the Play = Exit to WB issue. But with a keyboard quitkey set the global quitkey=$11a isn't working anymore. Probably needs an update.

Agreed - looking at readme the slave seems to lack built in support for quitting with FWD+BWD+YEL, which would be useful.
