I have a feeling you will struggle to find a fix for it.  As was
stated in the thread you linked... floppies are obsolete (for many
years) and finding someone with the knowledge AND incentive fix an
issue for hopelessly obsolete hardware (even if in your use case, you
still use them) is going to be very difficult... or more likely
impossible.

I haven't seen a computer with a floppy drive in 5 or 6 years now...
and now, CD/DVD drives are becoming rare... soon to be obsolete as
well.
