Camera switches could not be toggled

[sodinets]

Describe the problem you are having

When I toggle the camera switches for detect/recording/snapshot within few seconds they return to original state as set on the frigate camera UI. I tried to toggle them in developer panel as well as in autmations. However, they could be changed only in the frigate UI/

I use Home Assistant integration and Sonoff camera on x86 CPU system. In order to reduce storage, I want to toggle the switches when arming/disarming the cameras with an automation.

this is usually due to a misconfiguration on mqtt
