If the SL app is inside an updatepanel I don't think you will ever win. You could try pagemethods instead of updatepanels perhaps, assuming the legacy permits.
I just tried it out for fun. I have two divs, one with a SL app and one with a html button. On clicking the button I hid the SL div, called the page method, and on the page method callback showed the SL div and updated a label in the html div with the time from the server. The SL app definitely didn't reload, as I had a timestamp showing in the xaml side of things that didn't change.
