Sniffer cannot follow device

I'm using the 1.0.1 nRF Sniffer and 1.10.10 Wireshark on Windows 10 64bit. The firmware 1.0.1 is programmed to nRF51822 dongle using Jlink 6.12a. The exe works fine when no device is selected, in wireshark I can see all the adv packets from different devices. But once I select specific device to follow, then open wireshark, it shows there is no packet received. I attached the log and pcap file below.

Also, I tried the example.py in SnifferAPI folder, and found that it can only follow the advertisement of a specific device for a certain number of packets. After that it just shows UART read timeout (2 seconds) just like in the log for the exe attached.
