Default value/Initial state for the Toggle datatype is not working

I have a datatype Toggle (CardView in the attached picture) with the initial value selected as true.

When using this datatype in an existing document type from a block list, I have to go to every node where that component is present, click on submit button, and click on save and publish. Then only we can see the default value of the datatype as true.

Publish with descendants also does not work.

Please suggest any approach to solve this.

Umbraco version: 8.18.8
