Not exactly a bug, but it's keeping me from using Open Brush
I replaced my joysticks on my Quest 2, and now I can't change brush size or turn the menu. This is the only app that's having problems. It's doing it in Steam or in Oculus Link.

We make use of the touch sensor on top of the sticks to ensure the stick isn’t knocked accidentally. Sounds like your touch sensors weren’t reconnected?
Well, there's only one ribbon cable to connect when you swap joysticks, so either everything is connected, or nothing is. But it's possible that the replacement sticks have faulty touch sensors or no sensors at all. I can test in a bit. I'll let you know the results.
Yeah, it turns out the little spring on the joystick is the touch sensor, and I didn't realize. The video I followed didn't mention it, either, and he didn't have them on his. I just thought they were part of the old joysticks, and threw them out.
And now the only place I can find replacements wants $30 for a pair of them.
ok. Found a pair for $3 and ordered them.
But you might consider adding in an option to disable the touch sensor check. Some people might have bought a used controller with no sensor, and aren't tech savvy enough to replace them.
