NZBGet always pauses itself after a URL fetch

When I submit a URL to an NZB via NZBHydra via API, after NZBGet fetches the nzb it pauses both the new download and the whole application. I then have to manually resume NZBGet and the download.

Is this a setting somewhere? I can't see anything about pausing after fetching anywhere.

When adding items via API there is a parameter telling nzbget to add the item in paused state. Maybe hydra sets that parameter.

The global downloading can be paused via api with a separate call. Maybe hydra doing that as well? Other possibility is that the DiskSpace-option in NZBGet triggers; in that case a warning message is printed to the log.

If you have extension scripts they can pause global downloading and items as well. Disable all extension scripts and retry the test.
