Command line options override config file settings. That allows for quick checking of a option without editing your config file. You can quickly test a feature w/o changing anything.

If that's a problem, just add both output methods to your config file using the output plugin 'alert_unixsock' and whatever logging types you wish otherwise.

Cheers!
