My flood may be down to the FFM, there is a sliding part on the inner mouthpiece and apparently this can cause a leak if it isn't either fully open or closed, I am yet to test it since I found this out.

yeh keep an eye out for the ffm mouthpiece/mask internal seal thingy if its not seated properly any small amount of water that enters the mask and congregates at the bottom can be drawn into the dsv - but you would be very hard pushed to flood your unit via that way. I know I tried

I have no idea why Drager designed it that way - seems a bit stupid to me.
