There is a way to make them momentary but it's really not THE solution. You'd likely have to own the units to see my frustration, but a brief explaination is that a value of 64 or greater is interpreted as record, and 63 or less is overdub. I programmed it as momentary as a work around, but you have to hold your foot on the switch while recording because letting up puts you in overdub mode. If I programmed a dedicated record and dedicated overdub I'd make them momentary for sure. The problem there is that you can't program a dedicated record button using continuous control, Line 6 left it out. Program change and note on, but no continuous control. That pretty much alienates the Ground Control Pro users out there. Perhaps there's an All Access in my future. All it takes is money!

I don't have either of the devices you mention; but, maybe the Echo Pro is looking for commands from a momentary switch & your Ground Control switches are latching. Is there a way to program the GC to act as momentary switches?
