Can't find Deforum saved settings file, guessing it's not being written

Describe the bug

Deforum has the ability to load/save settings from text files. the default file name is deforum_settings.txt. after saving, i'm unable to find this file in any of the folders mounted by the image, and couldn't find anything poking around inside the image either. Also tried changing the output path to a few different absolute paths, e.g. /output/deforum_settings.txt, no dice.

As a workaround, deforum can load the settings file from a relative path. This doesn't resolve the issue with saving settings, although i think it should work for anyone who wants to load settings they may have written using deforum in other environments.

... ok, I found a workaround: able to write settings to /output/img2img/deforum_settings.txt. I'm guessing this is a permissions thing, probably with no good solution. keeping it open while I wait for comment, but I'm pretty sure I'm at least unblocked.
