Disabling Recentering

I have a hands-only controlled game where users sometimes glance at their palm, triggering a recenter. I know the proper gesture is to hold a pinch while looking at your palm, but for whatever reason, glancing seems to sometimes trigger it. I've tried disabling the "Allow Recenter" option in OVRManager with no luck. Any advice?

      I have a similar post about this.  For me it only happens the first time the user has either palm facing the camera.  Afterwards it seems not to happen.  Nope, after more testing, it's happening often and seemingly at random times whenever left or right hand is turned palm up toward the camera.  It seems to be fundamental to the device not something I am doing through code.

        It happens while i´m racing when i am steering around 90°, it´s annoying as heck! Only got this problem since i´m using virtual desktop, or maybe it is the new quest update? No matter what is causing this, i neeeeed to find a way to disable this!
