<![CDATA[ToF works from UI, not when using ampy]]>Hi,

the ToF sample program does not work when running via ampy. But it works from the UIFlow.

How to reproduce:

Connect a ToF sensor to the M5 stack (Firmware UIFlow 1.3.2)
Get the sample ToF program
Run via UI. Should work fine.
Copy&paste the Python code into a file named tof.py
Disconnect M5Stack
Run ampy reset to get the M5Stack into non-UIFlow (ampy v1.0.7 used)
Run ampy run tof.py

You'll see that the distance is and stays 0
