Multiple Profiles not switching Logins on Twitch Docks

I've tried sorting this out on my own but I'm pretty stumped. I tried searching the forum for my issue and I was surprised I couldn't find a solution.

I have multiple twitch accounts and each one is assigned to a different profile on OBS. On previous versions of OBS, this worked fine. After updating to version 32.1.1, the profile does in fact switch the twitch logins, but it does not switch my embedded docks within OBS to the correct twitch account. So if I'm in Profile 1 (Twitch Account A) I will see the twitch activity feed, chat, stream settings all fine. But if I switch to Profile 2 (Twitch Account B), those twitch docks will display an 'ACCESS DENIED' webpage (because I'm viewing these as Twitch Account A). However if I go live, it will stream to the correct channel. So the PROFILE is switching but the docks are not. The docks will only show up for the most recent account/user I connected via OBS settings.

I know I can probably work around this issue by just giving each of these accounts editor status for the other, but I wouldn't be able to chat through obs on the correct account so it would still be wonky.

Just wondering if there's a solution to this that I'm missing. Maybe a corrupted file not writing a cookie or something.

Thanks!

I found a work around. Duplicating the profile was the issue. This seems to be an on and off issue with OBS as I've found some threads and reddit threads from 2023 and beyond about it without this solution listed....

That may be intended but seems pretty silly. I just want the same settings/bitrates but not have every duplicated profile share the same login. Or produce this desync of the stream broadcasting to the correct place but the docks not switching twitch accounts. Oh well. :/
