Default Morse code (when did CW become "Morse Code"?)

As well it should. In the LSB and USB positions, the BFO is turned on.
SSTV is essentially sideband (requiring the BFO), in that the video SSTV
signal is plugged into the mic jack...and naturally, CW (morse) requires
use of the BFO --so what you describe is not surprising.
