IPad 2 home button won't make contact to unlock screen.

I'm replacing a digitizer on an iPad 2 for someone. I've fixed this same iPad before. Everything went fine until I got the new digitizer installed and realize the home button isn't working. It seems like a physical button placement issue. I jumped the contacts on the logic board and the screen came up and I seem to have continuity between the contact pads on the home button itself. Could the manufacturer have just glued the contacts too high on the digitizer? Any ideas?
