Trying to run unity + steam vr tutorial - Headset stops tracking if any headset button/knob is hit

I’m just getting started. I’m trying to run the tutorial. I’m able to hit play, and see that if I lift the headset, the scene is moving in unity. However as I put the headset on, my hand might bump the button on the side, or one of the adjustment knobs. If this happens the headset stops tracking and I have to restart steamvr to get it back.

Which headset are you talking about? I’m unaware of any knobs or buttons on the Vive headset.
