Ive never had it happen.But have heard of it. I think the Auto inflates use a different system nowadays to keep that from happening.

Never had a problem and I've worn them in plenty of rain.  The auto inflator is tucked up inside the front part that looks like suspenders so it's really out of the way and not exposed.  They also have a manual tag you can tug to infate and that tends to hang out and get caught on things if you aren't carefull.
