`puppet facts upload` always uses environment "production" ignoring setting from puppet.conf

We have nodes with environment different than default "production", in here it's "qa":

[root@app03.XXX:~]# cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf

(...)

[agent]

report      = true

runinterval = 1800

environment = qa

splay = true

But if we upload facts using `puppet facts upload` always environment "production" is being used:

[root@app03.XXX:~]# /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin/puppet facts upload --debug

Debug: Runtime environment: puppet_version=5.5.2, ruby_version=2.4.4, run_mode=user, default_encoding=UTF-8

Debug: Evicting cache entry for environment 'production'

(...)

In puppetdb facts from such nodes have "facts_environment" set to "production", while "report_environment" and "catalog_environment" are set correctly to "qa".

If you simply run "puppet agent -t" facts with correct environment, "qa", are being uploaded.
