I've come across a situation where that happens. An illustration with a landscape aspect ratio is rotated 90 degrees in the book so as to fill the page (screen). Normally the Oasis just has to be rotated 90 degrees as well and no auto flip occurs. But when one is reclined, the Oasis is already rotated 90 degrees with respect to gravity and there is a 50% chance that the rotation to orient the image will complete the 180 degree rotation of the Oasis and the orientation flip will be triggered and cause the illustration to be upside down. The only cure is to roll over and lie on the other side.
