Flashing/Debugging nRF52832 with ST-Link V2 not working anymore

Hey,
I was flashing/debugging my nRF52832 with an ST-Link V2. Since I updated to mbed-studio 1.1 (+ all tools to newest version) it is not working anymore. I posted this issue also at the pyocd github repository:

Would be nice if you have any suggestion how to solve this issue.

Thanks!

I just checked once again my ST-LINK firmware. I used V2.J37.S7 before and just flashed V2.J34.S7. With this version it looks like everthing is working again! =)
