OVRInput.GetDown not working on Touch controllers in unity?

I am having a hard time getting the buttons to work reliably on the oculus touch controllers in unity.

If I use if OVRInput.GetDown it never seems to work, but using OVRInput.Get works all the time?

I wasn't sure if it was something to do with OVRInput.Update (); and I've tried adding it to 1 script and all the scripts that detect input but both ways give the same results, .GetDown will not work, but .Get will?

Is there a step I'm missing?

I can also confirm this issue. Currently on Unity 2017.1.0f3 with the latest oculus sdk (from the unity store).

OVRInput.GetUp() and OVRInput.GetDown() always return false, with OVRInput.Get() being the only way of detecting if a key is down.

I can post a copy of my project if you wish to take a look.

if (OVRInput.GetDown(OVRInput.Button.Two))

Same issue here. And also in the Unity Input Debugger, only position/rotations things are working. No Button ;/
