Backup issue with MQTT Engine

Hi,
I noticed that our Ignition Gateway failed to do scheduled backups and also manual backups.
The error is this:

After a bit of investigation I found that the new setting in the MQTT Engine was the culprit:

If I disable Alarm Event then the backups are working fine again.

I just wanted to highlight this for anyone else that should encounter this issue.

Of course it is an issue if you want to use alarming over MQTT that it will prevent backups from working.

Ignition version: 8.1.43
MQTT Engine: 4.0.24
