Do you configure it with a xorg.conf.d .conf file (50-wacom.conf) or
still with HAL and a .fdi file?

That shouldn't happen which is why I am curious as to how you are
configuring the tablet.  What applications do you see that behavior
in?  Or is it in everything?

That will happen if you move the stylus out of proximity range.  When
the stylus is in proximity touch is shut off.

How are you disabling touch?  With a touch toggle script?
