This would have regressed from this PR: https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/pull/20593

They added support to get the image from person, but I suspect if a person entity and a specific image is specified, the given URL should probably have priority, and only use the person's picture if image: is not specified.

@Quentame does that sound right to you?

I have this issue as well. I use a picture entity with a picture of a vehicle to fire off some actions when pressed (open garage door, start car, etc). The picture entity has a state filter which dims the photo when the driver is not home. This has worked well until the change above where now the person photo overrides the “image:” tag. Ultimately the photo of the car has been replaced by the photo of the person.
