Light interference with computer

I have a Cateye Urban Wireless computer on my road bike. I commute to work sometimes, and I use a Light & Motion brand Urban 800 model light. I started noticing that speed and miles were not being recorded on the computer for about the first mile or two after I leave home. I thought the batteries were the problem so I replaced them. Same problem. I pulled the urban wireless instructions out of the box, and sure enough, it indicates that 'interference may occur...or certain battery-powered lights. I had a different light on for awhile before the Urban 800 and never experienced this problem.

Are there certain brands or models that do this? Anybody else experience this? Don't really have many options for mounting the light away from the computer on road bike handle bars.

Thx,
Mark
