Webdriverio - Open Google Chrome Browser with Geolocation allowed

Question

I am using webdriverio as automation tool and I want to launch google chrome where geolocation is already allowed so that it would not ask/show the notification box for asking to allow/block the location. This could be a duplicate of below question link but I tried the solution given there and it works fine when I set the geolocation=2 (meaning to block) but its not working when I set geolocation=1 (meaning to allow) as the chrome browser is still asking to allow/block the location, weird that the other option(2-block) worked but (1-allow) did not.

Webdriverio/chimpjs - Launch Google Chrome with Gelocation permitted

so I used the answer from the link into my wdio.conf.js like this:

browserName: 'chrome',
  'goog:chromeOptions': {
      args: [
        'incognito',
        'disable-gpu',
        'no-sandbox',
        'window-size=1920,1080',
        'start-maximized',
      ],
      prefs: {
        'credentials_enable_service': false,
        'profile': {
          'password_manager_enabled': false,
          'default_content_setting_values': {
            'geolocation': 1
          }
        }
      },
      w3c: true,
    }
