Same version here, from rawhide.

The only time I see this behaviour is with the default Common profile.
If you set something in the common profile it gets set or unset in all

I checked and you can't rename the common profile, but maybe copying
it gives you the same behavior? I'm not sure how you created your
profiles, maybe this has something to do with it though.
