that's indeed true, "ctrl-select" is not part of the RT-safe command set,
and thus the engine is disconnected while the command is run.

However, there is no technical obstacle for changing this (i.e. making
"ctrl-select" RT-safe). So I'll put this on the todo-list...

But while waiting for that, I'm afraid "-kx" is the only thing that can
currently change controller values (doesn't really help unless you can use
MIDI).

PS I haven't yet looked at the possibly problem you raised with "-kx"
    in another mail...
