so when i press a key for 'vr center' after entering vr from 2d, 'vr center' centers to the 2d view point prior to entering vr...  how can this be after all those betas?

Another VR bug created in SU3.  You have to center view before entering VR.  All those betas only work if they fix what is found in them....as opposed to targeting a date for a conference.

Ah I thought I was going mad, I did not recall this happening before but doubted my memory.  But at least the workaround is not too difficult.

I use a Reverb G2 and haven't noticed this bug.  I hit the 'space bar' to center the view afterentering VR mode, and it seems to work fine.  I have the store version of MSFS2024 - not the Steam version.  Does the bug only effect SteamVR?

I’m on Steam version with Pimax Crystal OG and don’t have any issues centering the headset in VR. 

this happens in ms store version of msfs2024.  if the view in 2d isn't centered before entering vr, vr center will center to the 2d position right before entering vr. 

let's say enter vr and everything ok, then get out of vr for a while and look at things in 2d, then re-entering vr and centering will center to the 2d position.    wasn't a bug in su2.

I have the Steam version, and use OpenXR, not SteamVR. As OP states: center view DOES work, but it centers on any 2D view/angle/height that you were in, not on the default pilot view as it was before SU3.

This issue is not impacting me. It always centers to the default VR view regardless of whether I was in 2D first. It’s odd that it’s not affecting everyone so it might be worth reviewing your camera settings. 

For example, SU3 changed my keyboard settings causing my brakes not to release even though the animation showed that they were being released when I used my joystick bindings. I had to go into my keyboard controller settings and manually delete all of the brake settings that SU3 assigned without my knowledge. Maybe something like that is going on with the camera views.? Not claiming that is the root cause for this, but worth exploring. 
 

Edit: I have a binding on my flight stick for “Reset Cockpit View”. Just tap it then hit your VR Centering key. I don’t have to reset my cockpit view often, but if I start changing positions in the cabin, I will push that and it takes me back to the default view.

su4 still has the same vr recenter problem.  the fix is to assign both 'vr center' and 'reset cockpit view' to one key so it does both in one press.
