Not a bug
Check your default user permissions and other group permissions in admin panel and clear cache
It will work

You set USER_PERMISSIONS_CHAT_TEMPORARY_ENFORCED to FALSE! So you do NOT enforce temporary chat. You should set this to TRUE.
Also you need to remove USER_PERMISSIONS_CHAT_TEMPORARY. Because if you have no access to this value, the system seems not to recognize that you enforced it. If you only set the 1st value, you are temporary forever and cant disable it.
