Burnt Spot on Mini Controller

Has anyone figured out how to keep the burnt/discolored/brown spot from appearing on the X10 Mini Controller escutcheon. It has appeared on every one I own.

I assume its the zener diode located under that spot thats getting hot but has anyone replaced it with a bigger one or relocated it?

what part number? How did you do it?

Here's a pic.
