Clearing a selection from a secondary slicer

I have a set of visuals that uses 2 slicers.  When making a choice on slicer 1 (Region), slicer 2 has 3 possible options (Fig 1).  If you select one of these options, this selection remains when changing the selection on slicer 1 (Fig 2).  This selection remains until selecting one of the options relevant to the new selection (fig 3).

Is there a way to stop this?  The data from both slicers is in the same query

That is the way it is, unfortunately: a selection currently will not automagically unselect itself. Here's to hoping for future development which will solve this "annoying" behaviour

You could use the Chiclet slicer instead from Custom Visuals

I was starting to think that might be the case but somehow couldn't convince myself that such a 'smart' app could be so messy...
