I have been trying to use a checkbox inside a multifield in touch UI but the value of the the checkbox is always set to true even though I have not selected the checkbox.

Also on reopening the dialog the value of the checkbox is always unchecked even though the value in JSON is set to true.

This is my Dialog:
