Setting General > "Update in background" does not save properly despite being set correctly in config file.

Description

The menu point ""Update in background" has 3 settings: None, Graphics only, Graphics and sound.
This setting corresponds to "pauseMode=" in the user_settings.DayZprofile file, witth None = 0, Graphics only = 1, Graphics and sound = 2.
Changing this setting to "Graphics and sound" while ingame works correctly and sets it to 2 in the file.
But starting the game sets it back to "Graphics" only.

Edit:

The issue is caused by using the -nopause launch parameter or ticking "No Pause" in DZSA Launcher.
Ticket can be closed.

maybe next patch 😭

Dunno if my settings were locked in as I had this set before the update, but mine worked OK.

Try purging your config file and see if it fixes it.

Official server, community?
I think servers can force certain config changes to the user.

Okay, I did some experimenting thanks to your post.
I got it all wrong, the issue was caused by having "No Pause" ticked in DZSA Launcher.
That overwrote the options and set it to "Graphics only".
