Wacom Tablet won't respond unless I restart my MacBook Pro.

So here's the issue;

I start my Macbook, open Wacom Centre, then my Wacom Cintiq is recognised and I can use it.

If I put my MacBook to sleep OR unplug/turn off my Cintiq, and then want to use it again, I have to restart my MacBook and start the whole process again, - my MacBook doesn't detect my Cintiq if left unused for a long period or unplugged then plugged back into my Macbook.

Can anyone help with this issue?

and what about on the fly relaunching the Finder...?

hold the Control Option keys down clicking Finder..

Force quitting and restarting the Wacom Center and WacomTabletDriver from the system Activity Monitor works for me. When the tablet driver restarts it recognizes the Cintiq and Wacom pen again. Not an ideal fix, but faster than restarting the whole computer at least.
