Boot to Browser only loading to Octopi UI

[kblankenship1989]

Versions: Octoprint: 1.5.2 TouchUI: 0.3.17

Issue: I had older versions of both TouchUI and Octoprint (don't know the previous ones but both pre-pandemic at least) and my TFT was working fine. After updating both to latest, I get the Octopi UI to pull up on my touchscreen but no way to switch to "TouchUI" (i.e. does not auto detect or have the toggle button to switch ui's like the webpage does)

Solutions attempted: Removed and reinstalled TouchUI plugin and ran "TouchUI-Autostart/helpers/uninstall" then did "install" again. Changed "TOUCHUI_URL" in defaults to "http://localhost:{PORT}/#touch" but did not work Changed "FORCE_TOUCH" to true in defaults but did not work

defaults file:

# Configuration for /etc/init.d/touchui

# The init.d script will only run if this variable non-empty.
TOUCHUI_USER=pi

# Where is the xinit file locatated
TOUCHUI_DIR="TouchUI-autostart"

# And what xinit file are we looking for
TOUCHUI_FILE="chromium.xinit"

# TouchUI server port
TOUCHUI_PORT="8888"

# Touch server host
TOUCHUI_URL="http://localhost:$TOUCHUI_PORT/"

# Command to hide cursor and window-manager before launching chromium
#TOUCHUI_EXECUTE=""

# Change chromium bin location
CHROME_BIN="chromium-browser"

# Path to the xinit executable, use this to override the default setting "/usr/bin/xinit"
#DAEMON=/path/to/xinit/executable

# What arguments to pass to xinit, usually no need to touch this
DAEMON_ARGS=/home/$TOUCHUI_USER/$TOUCHUI_DIR/$TOUCHUI_FILE

# Umask of files touchui generates, Change this to 000 if running touchui as its own, separate user
UMASK=022

# Process priority, 0 here will result in a priority 20 process.
# -2 ensures touchui has a slight priority over user processes.
NICELEVEL=-2

# Should we run at startup?
START=yes

# Should Chromium start with touch events? (false or true)
FORCE_TOUCH=false

# Enable or disable the screensaver
DISABLE_SCREENSAVER=false

# Autodetect OctoPi port number
AUTODETECT_PORT=true

# Path for the profile - defaults to ram disk to reduce writes
#CONFIG_DIR=/run/touchui-chromium/

init.d file:

#!/bin/sh
