Generated boms are always of type "library" allthough <projectType>application</projectType> is configured

[Ulathar]

I noticed that some of my tracked projects are all of a sudden listed as "Library" in my Dependency-Track Instance instead of "Application".
I double checked by editing these projects back to "Application" and then rerun CycloneDX + the Dependency Track Plugin to push a new bom to the Tracker.
Results are that after that action the tracked projects are of type "library" again.
So I digged into the generated boms and noticed that the types of all the components in there are on its default "library" ingoring / overwriting my configuration which is set to "application".

I can't tell for sure since when this behavior occurs, might be since the Update to v2.9.1

The relevant configuration part of my CycloneDX Plugin configuration in my pom.xml:

<configuration>
	<projectType>application</projectType>
	<schemaVersion>1.6</schemaVersion>
  	<includeBomSerialNumber>true</includeBomSerialNumber>
  	<includeCompileScope>true</includeCompileScope>
   	<includeProvidedScope>true</includeProvidedScope>
  	<includeRuntimeScope>true</includeRuntimeScope>
  	<includeSystemScope>true</includeSystemScope>
 	<includeTestScope>false</includeTestScope>
 	<includeLicenseText>false</includeLicenseText>
 	<outputReactorProjects>true</outputReactorProjects>
	<outputFormat>all</outputFormat> 
	<outputName>bom</outputName> 
	<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}</outputDirectory> 
	<verbose>true</verbose>
</configuration>

The plugin configuration takes place in the "pluginManagement" Section of my pom.xml.

The generated bom contains this description for the actual project / module / component:

"component" : {
      "type" : "library",
      [...]
},
"properties" : [
      {
        "name" : "maven.goal",
        "value" : "makeAggregateBom"
      },
      {
        "name" : "maven.scopes",
        "value" : "compile,provided,runtime,system"
      }
    ]
  }

So it looks like the actual projectType in the configuration is ignored?

Expected behavior:

• The Project Type stays at the configured type "Application" in the Dependency-Tracker

providing a test project that permits detect change in behaviour would help a lot: thank yo
