toggle.isOn is not working when timescale == 0

Unity Engine

For some reason toggle.isOn = true does not work when timescale is 0. I dont use any transitions or anything on the toggle component and I try to set it via script. Works fine when timescale is > 0.

Any ideas how I can get around this?

Are you sure?

using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

// @kurtdekker
// drop this script on a Toggle suitably in a Canvas hierarchy
// press PLAY
// observe the blink
// press T to toggle time scale
// see timescale outputted in Debug.Log()
// observe steady blinking of toggle checkmark
// ???
// profit!

public class Gloggle : MonoBehaviour
{
    Toggle t;

    IEnumerator Start()
    {
        t = GetComponent<Toggle>();

        // blinks the toggle on / off
        while (true)
        {
            t.isOn = false;
            yield return new WaitForSecondsRealtime(0.25f);
            t.isOn = true;
            yield return new WaitForSecondsRealtime(0.25f);
        }
    }

    void Update()
    {
        // lets you pause / restart time
        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.T))
        {
            Time.timeScale = (Time.timeScale == 0) ? 1 : 0;

            Debug.Log("Timescale is now: " + Time.timeScale);
        }
    }
}

So strange, I call the exact same code for everything and the only case its not working for me is when timescale is 0.

I can clearly see the code being called using breakpoints. Must be something else then. Thanks!
