V1 not asking for mode switch

Was working RTTY contest and also doing CW and Log4OM V1 was not always setting the mode.
I'm using rigctld and can watch the commands coming across. Sometime it sets the mode and sometimes not. Can't seem to see any pattern. Is there some logic in Log4OM V1 that is trying be smart and not set mode if the mode is the same?
Seems to me it should just set the mode every time...no harm done...

IC-7300 but since it's via rigctld Log4OM won't know that.

I am sure you know best but just try changing the config CAT setting to send mode first!

Not sure that will help...will try...but I've confirmed that Log4OM just doesn't send a mode switch command to rigctld sometimes.
I can provide logs to prove it if you need. Figured you could peek at the source and see if there's some logic that might cause it to not send it.
