CurrentChannel broken on "NextChannel" keydown event

Description

My current channel is actually 7, yet when recording the keydown event for "NextChannel" the channel should progress in the order; 5, 7, 12, 13.
My keydown event has diag_log lines in it to record what Arma thinks is the current Channel when pressing NextChannel...

10:18:33 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | Next Channel | Current Channel: 5"
10:18:33 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | Next Channel | Current Channel: 5"
10:18:33 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | Next Channel | Current Channel: 5"
10:18:34 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | Next Channel | Current Channel: 5"

Because it sees the current Channel as 5, it continually progresses to channel 7, despite being on channel 7 already, so the NextChannel function simply does not work anymore since the Apex update.

Previous channel works correctly, although when operating on Channel 5 (Direct), it displays Channel 3 (Group) in the output logs below:
9:58:17 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: 7"
9:58:17 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: 3"
10:04:00 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: 3"
10:04:00 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: 13"
10:04:01 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: 12"
10:04:01 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: 7"
10:04:02 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: 3"
10:04:02 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: 13"
10:04:02 "KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: 12"

Severity: Minor

Reproducibility: Always
Operating System: Windows 10 x64

Steps To Reproduce

//Channel select Next
if (_code in actionKeys "NextChannel") then {
if (currentChannel == 13) then {

		if (vehicle player != player) then {
			_isSet = setCurrentChannel 4;
		} else {
			_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;
		};

};
if (currentChannel == 3 && (vehicle player == player)) then {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 4;} else {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;};
diag_log format ["KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | Next Channel | Current Channel: %1",currentChannel];
};

//Channel select Previous
if (_code in actionKeys "PrevChannel") then {
if (currentChannel == 5 && (vehicle player == player)) then {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 3;};
if (currentChannel == 4) then {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 3;};
diag_log format ["KeyHandler || Troubleshooting channels | PrevChannel | Current Channel: %1",currentChannel];
};

//PushToTalk handler...
if (_code in actionKeys "PushToTalk") then {
switch (currentChannel) do {

		case 3: {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;};
		case 4: {};
		case 5: {};
		case 6: {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;};
		case 7: {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;};
		case 8: {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;};
		case 9: {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;};
		case 10: {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;};
		case 11: {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;};
		case 12: {};
		case 13: {_isSet = setCurrentChannel 5;};

};
};

Additional Information

The above code is what is placed inside a keyhandler.

Channel 3 (Group) is disabled, so should not be accessed, ever. Channel 4 (Vehicle) is hidden until a player is in a vehicle.
The last portion of code is the only other part where setCurrentChannel is used, and this is simply to change the chat channel of a player who presses their pushToTalk key to prevent side-chat spam.
