Physical printer host type setting inappropriately resetting itself to PrusaConnect
I'm not sure when this crept in, but I wasn't having this issue last week. For some background, here is my setup:
I have a single printer, a MK4. I've enabled/connected it to both PrusaLink and PrusaConnect. But, I use OctoPrint as my primary interface for starting prints. In PrusaSlicer (v2.8.0) I do connect to my PrusaConnect account, but I have the "physical printer" setting configured to connect to my OctoPrint server.
In the past couple days (possibly after the most recent configuration update?) I've been having problems sending files to my OctoPrint, and every time I go into the physical printer settings and change the connection type to OctoPrint it seems to want to change back to PrusaConnect when I close the physical printer settings. I first noticed this last night when trying to send a print job to OctoPrint, I got a connection error (I didn't screenshot the error window so I don't remember the exact wording). But I do know that when I went into the physical printer settings the URL was set to PrusaConnect's address. Here is how I want to have the physical printer settings configured (API key blurred for obvious reasons):
And here is the warning that I get when I click "OK" on the physical printer settings window:
I click "Yes" and am able to send to OctoPrint, but every time I re-open the physical printer settings window the host type is on PrusaConnect, not OctoPrint. Am I just lucking out that the OctoPrint and PrusaConnect host types are compatible?
Is this a known issue, or should I submit a github issue in the PrusaSlicer repository?

Looks like it was an issue, but they fixed it back in Feb 2023. https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues/9695 So it might be a regression.

I just spotted 2.8.1rc1. I'll check to see if this is an issue on the RC and report if it is still broken (on my two machines).

RE: Physical printer host type setting inappropriately resetting itself to PrusaConnect
I just checked 2.8.1RC1 and am now able to save OctoPrint as my host type. Verified by watching the .ini in %APPDATA%\PrusaSlicer\physical_printer\ to make sure the hostname was saved as:
host_type = octoprint
No need to submit a github issue.
