Splunk Cloud Gateway - Splunk AR Device Registration Issues

I am Unable to register a clients Splunk AR device through the gateway.

All other devices we've tested seem to work no problem, both viewing dashboards from QR codes and registering devices. The modular input scripts are all running (I have restarted splunk and also disabled/enabled them on through the UI) and the Cloud Gateway Status Dashboard all looks good/green. Everything seems to be working except the clients iPhone.

The client has provided several keys now including via screenshot (ruling out typos) but always returns Invalid activation code.

Client installed the app from the App Store late last week, so it should be reasonably current.

Here are the relevant bits of $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk/splunk_app_cloudgateway.log
