Beau Cameron Thanks for confirming, it was driving me a little crazy as I thought I was doing something wrong, but just good to get some confirmation that there is an issue in the underlying code.

Will post an issue as suggested, I think it may be in one of the underlying repos, rather than the PnP stuff itself, as I have the issue even when using Add-PnPListItem, which I suspect both call the same methods to set the values.
