settings storage seems to be ambiguous

[emphasize]

even though the ocp plugin uses XDG_CONFIG_HOME for its settings (.config/mycroft/apps/ovos.common_play/settings.json), sometimes it tries to save into the package library

21:56:52.501 - audio - ovos_utils.skills.settings:save_settings:118 - ERROR - error saving skill settings to /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ovos_plugin_common_play/ocp/settings.json

the xdg path was a recent change in last release, the OVOSAbstractApp and OVOSSkill classes have been unified in workshop, at same time OCP was refactored to follow a standard with all apps, perhaps some issue was introduced here

And there is more to it. After i changed app_view_timeout_enabled in the GUI menu, the config was written just fine. GUI wasn't reacting to the changes (ie not returning to the homescreen in timeout seconds) and i switched between pause and all. i went back and the setting was an empty dict.

Anything i can test?

Goes way back. don't think this is still an issue.
