OMNI Fire TV - Ambient Mode Issue

While I enjoyed the various flavours of Ambient since I got the TV, I decided a couple of months ago that while I liked the time / temp widgets in the upper left corner, I didn’t want the photos or motion videos displayed anymore. So I turned them off.

For some reason, a couple of days ago the photo carousel came back on without my input.

And I cannot get it turned off again (while leaving Ambient mode active for the displayed widgets).

Has anyone else run into this or know how to fix it? There no longer seems to be a way to turn the photos off with keeping widgets on anymore.

Or maybe my brain just isn’t seeing the option anymore.

Help?
