Black electrical tape over the emitter is a new one on me. I'll bet its a great fix

...what I learned when figuring out this stuff is that nice opaque black tape is not necessarily opaque

to IR.

"Colors" of light that we cannot see might be "seen" by IR sensors. The opposite it true, too. Black tape is not necessarily actually "black." Experiment to see how your particular circumstance works.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
