Org mode icalendar export: how to avoid time stamping in a description or summary

I have a program that I want to export as an icalendar file.

I do not use properties and export org-mode automatically detects summary and description from headings and bodys.

The entries were like this

* <2015-05-19 Tue 13:45-15:15> My entry

      

Sometimes it worked right. I received the entry with a short description "My entry" at the time indicated by the timestamp. The entry is now correctly placed at that time, but the timestamp is included in the pivot so I can see it in my calendar app.

I have tried reordering the order of the timestamp and title, but the best I have is to put the timestamp in the body like in the following entry

* My entry
  <2015-05-19 Tue 13:45-15:15> 

      

Now tismestamp is no longer in the summary, but in the event description.

I've tried using the org-mode options, but I haven't found a possible explanation for this change.

Can anyone help me to use the timestamp to place the event correctly, but not include it in the exported event?

I have the same problem. I found that you can add properties to each item to specify what should be in the pivot, for example:

* <2015-05-19 Tue 13:45-15:15> My entry
  :PROPERTIES:
  :SUMMARY: My entry
  :END:

      



(You can also add LOCATION and DESCRIPTION properties)

But this is pretty annoying.
