Description
I'm using Livesplit One's desktop version on Gentoo Linux.
When I open the program for the first time, I unbind all hotkeys, and then set my hotkeys to the following:
Start/stop: Down Arrow
Reset: Numpad 2
Undo: Numpad 4
Skip: Numpad 6
Pause: Numpad 8
This works as expected while the program is running. But the next time I open the program, my hotkeys will change to:
Start/stop: Down Arrow
Reset: Numpad 2
Undo: Numpad 8
Skip: Numpad 2
Pause: Numpad 5
Previous Comparison: Numpad 4
Next Comparison: Numpad 6
And unlike before, this time even if I change the settings here, they will not be saved when I hit "OK."
Other settings, such as disabling "always on top," seem to be saved correctly.
Splits and layout are also mostly remembered on reopening the program (window size is not saved.)
I located what seems to be Livesplit One's config file location (~/.local/share/org.livesplit.one/databases/indexeddb/v1/tauri_localhost_0/[numbers]/
If I delete all files in this directory, then the settings (and splits/layout) will reset and I will be able to temporarily have the correct keybindings until I next close the program, but since I'll have to resize the layout and such every time, this is obviously not ideal.

Research direction
Reproduce the hotkey persistence problem in the desktop version on Gentoo Linux, using the listed keybindings and reopening the program. Inspect the hotkey settings persistence in the IndexedDB location mentioned in the report. Done means bindings remain unchanged after restarting and subsequent edits are saved without resetting other settings.
