Setting heat to high also turns on the AC button in the car

Region and Brand of car
USA 2024 Palisade

Version of the integration
2.35.5

Describe the bug
Here are my settings

It is winter here so I want my car to be warm when I get in. Everything looks correct when I get in the car EXCEPT that the AC button is enabled. If I go into HA and configure this so that HVAC is off... then it wont turn the heat on at all. There must be some way to turn the heat on without having the AC mode also turn on, right?

Essentially all I want to do is mimic the blue link app "winter" start option as shown below

Here is the "issue". You can see the blue light is on for "AC" which means the AC is enabled.

To confirm the native app doesn't enable A/C? In many cars AC is used in the winter to remove humidity in the winter.

I would also play with the "heating" number in yaml. That all seems to contain the toggles you see. They seem to differ per car. So try send 1 and work your way up to when it stops working to find the combo you want.

Let me do a sanity check and try the native app but im like 99.9% sure it wasn't turning on the AC.

I would also play with the "heating" number in yaml.
Hm. by that you mean

action: kia_uvo.start_climate
data:
  duration: 10
  climate: true
  temperature: 85
  heating: "4" <=========== this right?
  device_id: 1234
  defrost: true
  flseat: "8"

That is correct.
