The "Hide Player Character" option of the Orbital Camera device is not working correctly

Summary

When a player uses the Orbital Camera and hides their own skin, if the device is later deactivated or another one is applied where the skin should be visible, the player still can’t see their own skin, even after the match ends.
However, when the player respawns, the opposite happens—they are unable to hide their skin, even after the match ends.

Steps to Reproduce

Use an Orbital Camera device and disable the visibility of your own skin. Then deactivate it or switch to another Orbital Camera device to try to make your skin visible again. (It doesn’t work)
Also, you can try respawning—then the opposite issue will occur: you won’t be able to hide your skin.

Expected Result

Your skin should be visible or hidden depending on whether you’re using the Orbital Camera device.

Observed Result

Once you respawn or become invisible, the game ignores the “Hide Player Character” option.
