Describe the bug

When using gphoto2 --set-config, I cannot set my ISO below 6400. If I try, the command succeeds but my ISO is stuck on auto. 

$ gphoto2 --get-config /main/imgsettings/iso
Label: ISO Speed                                                               
Readonly: 0
Type: RADIO
Current: 204800
END
$ gphoto2 --set-config /main/imgsettings/iso=6400
$ gphoto2 --get-config /main/imgsettings/iso
Label: ISO Speed                                                               
Readonly: 0
Type: RADIO
Current: 6400
END
$ gphoto2 --set-config /main/imgsettings/iso=3200 --debug --debug-logfile=debug.log 
$ gphoto2 --get-config /main/imgsettings/iso
Label: ISO Speed                                                               
Readonly: 0
Type: RADIO
Current: Auto ISO
END

debug.log Now, even if I try to set it back to 6400, it is stuck on auto. The only way to switch out of auto is if I manually reset it on my physical camera. 

$ gphoto2 --set-config /main/imgsettings/iso=6400 
$ gphoto2 --get-config /main/imgsettings/iso
Label: ISO Speed                                                               
Readonly: 0
Type: RADIO
Current: Auto ISO
END
