Cannot disable virtual keyboard

I cannot disable virtual keyboard, even I disable require system keyboard, disabling tracked keyboard supported, disabling virtual keyboard support. even editing in android manifest and set all keyboard support required to false. after I build it, my input text still returning virtual keyboard.

It frustrating me. I want to make my own keyboard but it cannot be disabled.

I'm curious about this too.  This happened when I updated from build ver 59 to build ver 62.  Seems like the overlay keyboard took over my implementation of the OVRVirtualKeyboard even though you're technically not allowed to have more than 1 instance of the OVRVirtualKeyboard in the scene.  But there it is.  One near and one far.

make a variable:

public OVRVirtualKeyboard keyboard;

then use the following to hide the keyboard:

keyboard.KeyboardHiddenEvent.Invoke();
