The panel control being bound in with the Atmel control has no hook for the EDT5x06 touch driver to hook in and keep the power to the touch controller active. When the panel disable gets called, bye bye touch overlay :-( And I'm reading the driver change as more of a hack to get it to work on your platform, not as adding support for the Waveshare panel variant. Waveshare deliberately cloned the behaviour of the Pi 7" panel in order to make it work with the old Pi firmware drivers, so it shouldn't need any significant changes. Where did the new timings come from?
