For the auto-selection to work, you need to enable both "Single click to open" and "Mouse auto-selection" in the preferences. When I tried it out myself, I found that I needed to manipulate the scale (i.e. change the speed value) before it would allow auto-selection.
My guess is that the speed is set to 0 when enabling auto-selection. If this is the case, then I'll try and make a fix.

Dani: Can you confirm that changing the speed value enables auto-selection for you?

The value was set to 0, which should be fixed in my branch.
