This article recommends sleeping on your back. However, it does warn that if you suffer from Sleep Apnea, that might be problematic.

I have to take issue with the idea of back sleeping (for most people), as there are too many cases of undiagnosed Sleep Apnea and positional Sleep Apnea out there to make this a good idea.

Interestingly, ended up sleeping on my back during my initial titration. The technician said that, rather than wake me up, he simply upped the pressure to make it work.

Isn't the whole point of the titration to find out what pressures you need? If you sleep on your back at least some of the time (and you did at the study), then shouldn't they be finding out what pressure you need when you sleep on your back? You seem surprised that they they didn't wake you, but titrated you instead.
