Touchpad does not end hold after hold and drag on Sway

Tested on other DE-s, wayland plasma and xorg plasma, on these there is no problem but on sway it is.
Sway config:
#Touchpad (tap to click)
input "type:touchpad" {
    dwt enabled
    tap enabled
    middle_emulation enabled
    natural_scroll enabled
}

Please someone help

I've also experienced this after a recent update. Add this to your config:

input type:touchpad {
    ...
    drag_lock disabled
}
