EmuDeck Cloud Sync Issues

When I use automatic cloud sync on my PC and my steam deck it works fine on my steam deck but on my PC it overwrites my cloud save when I launch a game, causing me to lose any progress I had made on my steam deck.

I used "Test Cloud Sync" on EmuDeck and it says everything is good on both devices, and if I manually download my cloud saves onto my PC that also works fine. The only issue occurs when saves automatically sync on my PC.

Example:

- I play a game on my steam deck.

- I close the game and my progress automatically sync to the cloud.

- I launch the game on my PC and I still have my progress is missing.

- I close the game and my old save on my PC gets uploaded to the cloud, overwriting the steam deck save.

- I launch the game on my steam deck and the old save gets downloaded, overwriting the local save causing me to lose all progress.

I confirmed that the steam deck is uploading to the cloud because if I manually download my cloud saves onto my PC before launching the game on my PC then I do have my new saves with the progress I made on my deck.

Edit: I just wanted to add that I also made sure both devices are using a Chromium browser as their default browser and my PC is running on CachyOS
