OH3 Switch Number/String reading as Null

I am having a little trouble getting incoming MQTT messages with json numbers for a switch (1 = on, 0=off). This works fine if I do it as a Contact but if I do it as a Switch it doesn’t work

When I add a point/item the item shows the switch till I next refresh then just NULL.

All my other switches that use ON/OFF instead of 1/0 work find.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

OK just made some ground on anyone else having this issue:

The problem seems to be an issue reading the default property, to get around this i just added the on/off in string and saved, then changed it to the 1 and 0 and saved and it updated the property to show:
