AntiVirus on Linux: "On-access scanning not running"

TiBike

Hi,

First time using Sophos AV on Linux (used it on XP before, but looks a bit different there).
 
Anyway, when I look at the GUI at http://localhost:8081/ , next to the shield it says "On-access scanning: Active". Also the date when it was "Last updated" is today. All fine .

But when I run /opt/sophos-av/bin/savdstatus in a terminal window, the response is "Sophos Anti-Virus is active but on-access scanning is not running"
 
Can anyone explain why it says "on-access scanning is not running"? Is it a problem (sounds like it), and if so how do I fix it?

It's a standalone PC, running Linux Mint 16 Xfce and Sophos 9.5.2

Many thanks
