iOS 5 Pull Down Notifications interference

In iOS the iOS 5 Pull Down Notifications intefere with the joystick controls in landscape mode on the iPhone 4S.

To recreate:

1. Create a MMF2 app with joystick controls set to Landscape
2. Your app will launch in a default Landscape mode. If you use the joystick on the left it will stick along with the B button if you hold the joystick to the right or left and press down the B button. This doesn't happen on the iPad 2 with iOS 5 or the 3GS with iOS 4. In addition, if you slide too close to the left of the screen while using the joystick you will see the icon for the Pull Down Notifications. The Pull Down notifications should actually be up at the top with the status bar and not affecting the app at all given the landscape mode.

If you simply rotate the landscape view once then the pull down notifications bar will move to the top of the view where it should be.

CAUSE:

For some reason on initial landscape launch the status bar location is not being set at the top where it should be. Instead it still resides at the top of portrait mode. The location of Statusbar hidden is where the Pull Down Notifications originate.
