Description
### Steps to reproduce
Unsure of reproduction steps. I was first tipped off when my custom notification sound (`notificationSound`) had changed back to the default, and then when inspecting the settings of Element through the devtools, it's mostly blank:
```json5
{
"type": "im.vector.web.settings",
"content": {
"releaseAnnouncementData": {
"newNotificationSounds": true,
"newRoomList_intro": true,
"newRoomList_sort": true,
"newRoomList_filter": true,
"newRoomList_settings": true
},
"MessageComposerInput.insertTrailingColon": true,
"SpotlightSearch.recentSearches": [
// A set of rooms
]
}
}
```
