OVRMonoscopic Does Not Appear To Work

I'm working in Unity 5.2.1f1 with Oculus Utilities 5.0.1.2.0 beta, building for GearVR.

I'm not currently able to enable monoscopic mode. There is a utility script in OVR/Moonlight/Scripts/Utils/OVRMonoscopic which toggles monoscopic mode by setting the value of OVRManager.instance.monoscopic when a gamepad button is pressed. I see that the value is being set, but it has no effect.

Is this simply broken, or am I missing something?

    It works!

    YeeHah!

    Monoscopic appears to be fixed.

    There is no UI element to toggle monoscopic so I made a little script to do it. I think this requires the Oculus Utilities. Put it on the camera, or anywhere else you like.

    Here it is :

    some news, I have just changed my platform and everything is working properly now with your settings. A great change compared to runtime 0.8, rendering is really smooth. 
    To install Oculus Home, I followed this thread : https://forums.oculus.com/community/discussion/32370/unofficial-workaround-for-access-control-list-not-in-canonical-form-error-during-oculus-setup. What worked for me was to uninstall Visual C++ 2015 redistr..., reboot and install Oculus Home (that will reinstall Visual C++ 2015). 
    Thanks a lot
