Cinematic device that plays during round countdown makes camera not work for late joiners

I have a cinematic device in my island with the following settings

When a player late joins into the island, the camera for that person is the last frame of the cinematic, it never goes to the player camera. Is this a known bug? Is there a work around for it?

Thanks!

Bump, it’s been over two weeks. It also seems that Play for Everyone sequences can get stuck on the last frame for players who didn’t late join. We have another situation where we play a sequence for everyone but if that sequence is played during another sequence, there’s an edge case where the play for everyone sequence gets stuck on the last frame for a player and that player never gets the fortnite player camera back

I have this exact same issue. Since I have multiple rounds in my game, I have tried making late joiners spectate until the next round begins. This resets their camera when they play in the next round. But while they are waiting as spectators, their cameras are either locked on the last cinematic, or they have black screens with HUD elements working normally.

FWIW, it doesn’t seem to be only for cinematics that play during the round countdown. It seems that any cinematic that plays for everyone exhibits this behavior where the camera gets stuck on the last frame of that cinematic for anyone who late joins after it plays.
