After updating to v28 OBS no longer saves camera settings

As topic states. I never had any issues with this in any version of OBS v26 or v27 but since updating to v28 today my camera (a Sony a6000 via a USB Cam Link 4K) looks like this when starting OBS:

It's in Swedish but y'all understand anyways, the contrast slider is down at 0 and no matter how many times I reset it back to where it should be it's back at 0 the next time I start OBS.

It looks right in the Elgato "4K Capture Utility" software, nothing has changed there AND even if I change around the settings in the Elgato app it does not translate over to the camera settings window in OBS.

The response for this I've seen in other threads is usually "your device has garbage drivers" but this was not an issue in prior versions of OBS and it works as intended in the Elgato capture utility. There's also no updates availible for the Elgato capture utility or the drivers for the Cam Link, I've checked.

Is there a work-around for this or is my only option to downgrade?

Got no solution, I'm just a guy experiencing the same issue since updating. It might be even worse on my side, bc after tweaking some properties and restarting OBS my image went to gray for no reason, I also experienced just a black screen after resetting the sources settings. Meanwhile in Elgatos "4K Capture Utility": No issues at all.
