Describe the bug

When I try to use an Esp32-Cam board to have xLights control a relay that is connected to GPIO16 it will only work when port 5 is set to relay and PWM. If I then enable any other port for ws2811 LED control the relay no longer functions. I even tried flashing the hardware as a Dig Octa and the same thing happens. Rely on port 9 works when no other ports are enabled, but when I enable another port for ws2811 LEDS the relay again no longer works.

Tests were done with no LEDs connected. I tested with a regular blue box relay and with an SSR.
xLights v2024.15
Input1: set to DDP Input 2: FPP Remote
xLights Controller: Esp32 and also Dig Octa (when flashed as the octa h/w version)
Relay GPIO: 16
Tested ws2811 GPIO's: 0,1,3, 22 (even though there is no access to 22 on the board. I just wanted to try another random pin assignment)

I have tested enabling all ports 1 through 4, one at a time and the issue came about every time I enabled any of them. When I disable all ports other than the relay port, the relay begins working as intended.

I hope this is something that can be fixed. Thanks!
