GearVR back button disabled after returning from global menu

I'm having trouble implementing the proper back button functionality.. I'm detecting the long press similar to how it's set up in the sample SDK file, and it goes to the OVR Platform Global Menu correctly, but after it returns the back button is disabled the first time you press it.

I tried just logging

Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape)

in Update and it doesn't log anything until I press/release the back button once. After that it works like it should again.

I also have the single press back button going out to the PlatformUIConfirmQuit screen, and if you return from that the back button works fine, it's just on return from the Global Menu it's disabled until you click it once.

thanks for any insight!

Yes, this is a known bug with Unity. I'll check to see if there is a workaround.

I seem to be running into the same issue. Is a workaround available?

Last I heard there was not a good workaround (aside from a hack that's not recommended).

But that was probably a month ago, so maybe things have changed. I can ask later this week.

Yay, glad it's not just me. Hopefully this bug won't cause an app to be disqualified from sale. I've tried quite a few experiments to fix and work around the issue but nothing causes a proper button press from Input so it's pretty moot.

This appears to be fixed in 5.3.0p1, which is shipping in a couple of days.

The fix will be released very soon, so hang tight.

EDIT: LOL, Dave beat me to it.
