is there a simple solution to this
Yes. Align the valve perpendicular to the circumference of the rim. Don't inflate the tube until you have aligned it better than you have been. -- Phil, Squid-in-Training

If your inner tube is creeping around the rim, then the tire isn't pumped up enough. Get a gauge and pump the tire up to its maximum pressure, which will be printed on the side of the tire.
