You are not referring to the TOC but the mini-TOC on the front
page. The TOC (which $TOC_DEPTH controls) is what you get
from the \tableofcontents command.
To suppress the mini-TOC use the command
\tableofchildlinks[off] on the 1st page.
To control what goes into the mini-TOC use the -link option.
(Of course this controls it for *all* pages with a mini-toc,
not just the 1st page.)
Hope this helps,
