Question / Help Youtube STream Now only detecting 720p stream (not 1080p)

I'm using OBS to stream our church services from an HDMI camera (via an Avermedia LGX). OBS is set up to 1080p30fps 6000kbps. If I use the stream key from youtube "stream now" page - my channel goes live OK. But if I look at "Stream Health" on youtube - it says I am sending data too fast. If I click on "Full Analytics" - is says my steram is GOOD 720p stream.

But I'm sending at 1080?

If I changeover and create a scheduled event, I can set the ingestion settings, which I set to 3000kps-6000kps (1080p). When I start my stream on the scheduled event - the live control panel correctly states I have a GOOD 1080p stream (exactly the same OBS settings - apart from the different stream key)

I'm confused why the "stream now" is only 720p (and complaining about speed too high) when I am sending 1080p? Where do I change the ingestion settings for the "stream now"? This page seems to suggest "Choose your own ingestion bitrate and resolution, based on your network conditions. Up to 1440p @60fps. " but I can't find where to set that for the "stream now". Any help appreciated.
