R5 Memory card settings, where it saves to switches at random

My Wife an I both have an R5, Both of us are experiencing the same situation with the settings will change on us of which card the video or image will save to. 
We will set it to Save to Card 1 (CFX) save the setting via C1-C3 (whatever one we are using) with the setting that it auto saves settings to whatever we last used. 

After a shoot and pulling out the card to memory dump 1 time or maybe it takes 3 to 4 times it will change the setting to only record photos or Video files to card 2 

This has become an issue as of late and we were seeing if there was a solution out there?

My 1D X Mark III will "forget" the card setting if I remove a card and shut the access door. It retains settings if I remove card, download images, and then reinsert card before closing access door.

Also, I *think* that the setting in Photo mode can be different from the settings in Video mode.  I've toyed with this a little and that was my conclusion.  e.g. You can set card 1 in Photo mode and card 2 in Video mode.  Or, in your case, you can "fix" the setting in Photo mode but it will still be "the wrong card" in Video mode.
