Hamlib rigctld switching between VFO A/B doesnt change the band mode #999

Description

@ndkohlman

What happened? How can it be reproduced? Provide as much information as possible.

I am having an issue with the mode in Qlog not changing when I switch between vfo's on my radio.

Configuration
Qlog ver 0.49.1
Radio: Yaesu FTDx10
OS: Fedora 43 KDE
Connection: USB Cable
Rig Connection Method: rigctld

I tested with enabling rigctld using the following command sudo rigctld -m 1042 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 38400 -p CAT
then I changed the setup to start automatically as a service

Create as a service
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/rigctld-ftdx10.service

[Unit]
Description=rigctld Hamradio rig controler - Yaesu FTDx10
After=syslog.target network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/rigctld -m 1042 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 38400 -p CAT
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
RestartSec=60
Restart=always
User=rigctld
Group=rigctld
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Behavior
I have VFO A tuned to 40m band, mode set to LSB and VFO B tuned to 20m band, mode USB
In Qlog, the mode says ssb and then then sub mode always stays on USB when I am switching back and forth between the VFO's via the radio. If I change from USB to LSB in Qlog, it changes both VFO A & B modes to LSB

What I have been doing
I have been leaving it on USB and logging the contact and then before uploading I manually change all of the contacts that I made on 40m band to LSB before I upload to a service
