Yeah, I do this as well, but it's still annoying as it takes it a few seconds to stop. And then usually happens again soon after, so I often just force push it in the direction I want.

I don't replace the cap often, but I do take it out and clean it, blow out the dust, etc. I'll give a fresh cap a try soon, thanks. It's just ridiculous this highly disruptive behavior is still a thing after all these years...
