3.8.2 upgrade forcing OAuth2 account linking

I have an authentication server that we have been using very successfully for SSO login to Moodle via OAuth2.  Today, I upgraded to 3.8.2.  Since the upgrade, all SSO login users are being told they have to link their accounts and confirm their email...this is extremely annoying - we never had to before...is there a way to turn this off? 

The documentation mentions an email confirmation setting but I do not have it as an option on either the OXAuth setting or the authentication settings.

Nothing has changed on the SSO server.

Must be a custom OAuth2 setup.  Can you share any details to the setup?

The only time have seen such behavior had to do with userid numbers in Moodle.  Remote system account info didn't match up with existing users.

Have you taken a look at mdl_user table and query for all users using that oauth2 to see what you currently have in moodle?
