Description

In the personal options panel is the open to "Save recordings automatically when I leave a board".
For the admin the toggle works fine, and can be enabled and disabled.
For the other users this results in the following error and the button stays disabled.

Failed to save recording preference.

Latest version of Nextcloud AIO.
Whiteboard installed via AIO interface.

If you need logs or anything let me know which.
I don't know where to start investigating this.

Any help much appreciated!
