this fixed the correct handling of the default main loop

but setting another DefaultTimeout isn't nice. I've to look later again into the problem. Maybe I did it wrong. Currently there's a compiler warning that could be ignores as long as Slot is created with void parameter, but I consider this as bug in the long time and I've to fix it!!
