My Gear VR App is freezing up after entering idle state. Anyone else having this issue?

As a test I got the latest Unity this morning and built the “OVR\Scenes\Room.Unity” scene that comes with the tools. Happens there to.

Any ideas?

Repro:
Open App In headset.
Set Headset down for 120sec.
Use headset.

Notice that the image / app is frozen.

Reproduced with 5.5.1p3 also.

Thanks for the work-around…

I am seeing this in 5.6.0f3 and am very surprised that no-one else seems to be running into this. The workaround does not work for me (I get “VRDevice Oculus cannot be disabled on this platform.” in the logs) so if anyone has any idea what I can do to solve this problem without downgrading I would very much appreciate some help.

I"m seeing that error in 2018.3 with current OVR SDK, really would like to know what’s going on
