Switched OIS Panasonic lens on Olympus E-m1 Question

Mainly I use E-m1  and Nocticron 42.5mm for portrait and switch the lens to Panasonic G7 when I shoot video. My problem is that I sometimes forget to turn on OIS switch on the lens changing em1 to g7. G7 usually deliver acceptable video without tripod, but pony riding videos I shooted last weekend without OIS and tripod were not usable at all.  For this reason, I decided to turn it on all the time and contacted both olympus usa and panasonic usa customer support. They recommended not to turn on OIS when I use IBIS on em1. It cause lens stabilization system malfunction. Olympus bodies has priority to body stabilization unless lens ois priority setting is on. But how does it work with lens OIS switch attached on? Anybody experienced blurry pictures when both IS was on? OMD body and Panasonic lens such as 12-35, 42.5 or 35-100.
