Question

I'm removing the ceramic logs in our fireplace & putting in fireplace glass instead. Looks great, lights fine with electronic ignition, but after a few seconds to a minute, some safety mechanism activates & shuts everything down. The gas is burning well, nice & clean, no soot. Maybe too much back pressure on the blower? Flame rectification? Any hints would be great.

The flame sensor is not sensing the flame clean with steel wool or scotch brite
