The issue is not dependent on switching sides just on re-entering from the lobby.

I take it back. Seemed to work but, nope...

Hello, could you please try reproducing the issue without mods? Thank you.

I am unable to reproduce the issue running with no mods. I have narrowed the mods down to 6. RHS:RU, RHS:US, CBA_A3, ACE3, MCC, AiA Terrain pack.

After changing the description.ext parameter:
respawnOnStart = 1;
to
respawnOnStart = 0;
the problem was resolved.

Also noticed that the parameter:
respawnTemplates[] = {"MenuPosition"};
only worked for side WEST and not for EAST, CIVILIAN, or GUER.
I had to add specific respawn templates for each side.
