It is literally physically impossible otherwise. The issue here is most likely the way you grip the bezel. You've probably got your fingers overflowing onto the screen.

On the other hand, having the device not turn page when you intend it to is a genuine concern. I do think it's to do with the engine, not the IR panel. I've heard of people using ePub on Kobos who have this issue, and it generally isn't one when reading kePub.
I did this poll a while back:

The page turning problems come and go for me. I'm currently having problems: doesn't turn a page, or goes back instead of forward. Swiping works better, but I personally dislike swiping.

YMMV.
