[Python] Can't control what variable to dodge on using so.dodge

I'm trying to pass a list of variables to the so.Dodge function of seaborn objects, so that in my plot provided in the following example, the dodge is applied only on two of three possible variables. In my example, this would translate to dots being arranged in columns of same "day", represented by the x-coordinate and "type", represented by the color, but not necessarily of the same "individual", represented by the shape.
However, in my case passing a list of variables to Dodge through the by argument seems to ignore all variables except the first one.
i.e. so.Dodge(by=["x"]) and so.Dodge(by=["x","type"])" both only dodge on "x" variable.

The following example should reproduce the problem. It works on google colab (Seaborn version: 0.13.2) and on my local environment (Seaborn version: 0.13.0).

Is it a known problem, is there any workaround? I tried using sequential calls to so.Dodge to no success.

Thank you very much

# Create the plot

#HERE IS THE PROBLEM
#The following commented line dodges on everything, including "individual, which is expected behavior
#.add(so.Dots(pointsize=5, alpha=0.75), so.Dodge(), marker="individual")
# What I want to do is the following line. However it only dodges on "x".
.add(so.Dots(pointsize=5, alpha=0.75), so.Dodge(by=["x","type"]), marker="individual")
# Scale colors and markers
.scale(color=sns.color_palette("Set2"), marker=marker_map)
