Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

1.10.1933.0

Other Software

Ubuntu 20.04

Steps to reproduce

I have Ubuntu as my default profile in Windows Terminal. And Windows Terminal configured to start automatically.
Open Settings > Profiles > Ubuntu 20.04 > Advanced > Bell Notification Style
Uncheck "Audible"

My resulting settings.json file looks like this:

This setting change works correctly correctly until the next time I restart the computer. After restarting the computer when Windows Terminal opens I get this:

and Ubuntu is no longer visible in the new tab or settings menu:

If I then go to settings, open the settings.json and delete the line "bellStyle": "none", from the Ubuntu profile, that profile immediately becomes visible again.

Expected Behavior

I expect changing a profile's "Bell Notification Style" (bellStyle) property by unchecking "Audible" (changing value to "none") to not cause the profile to fail to load.

Actual Behavior

Changing a profile's "Bell Notification Style" (bellStyle) property by unchecking "Audible" (changing value to "none") causes terminal to be unable to load that profile.
