I think this may be a bug in the home assistant integration. I will open an issue there.

It makes sense that you would want the state message retained, but having the set message persisted seems to be at the heart of this problem. I don’t know MQTT well, but is there a way to “un-retain” or overwrite the set message? I would click the button on the Frigate web interface to re-enable snapshots, but it would still be lost when restarting Frigate.
