iPad Air 4 palm rejection issue with 2nd Gen Apple Pencil

My iPad Air 4 recently started having issues with palm rejection, or lack there of. All software is up to date and it's brand new from Apple. Using it with the 2nd Gen Apple Pencil. Never had this issue with my iPad Gen 8 and 1st Gen Apple Pencil. Any idea what the issue could be?

iPad Air, iPadOS 14

iPad palm rejection with Apple Pencil Hello, 6th generation iPad (updated to iOS 13.3) 1st generation Apple Pencil (paired and unpaired several times, iPad hard reset several times) Used mostly with Procreate but issue exists in all Apps. Palm rejection seems to start failing (line breaks, unresponsive) once the Apple Pencil starts to drop below 98% charge. Failure happens with all brushes (in Procreate) and in other iOS Apps as well (Notes App for example). Apple Pencil works fine as long as my palm doesn’t rest on the screen. All iPad Accessibility > Touch settings are off Issue did not exist prior to recent iOS update(s). I’m guessing it’s an iOS issue. Please help. Thanks

Hand sensing on iPad with Apple Pencil not working My palm is recognized when I am using my Apple Pencil and it extremely distracting, as it flips through slides in preview app when I am just trying to rest my palm to write. Very disappointed that this feature doesn't work. When will this be fixed.....
