Canceling Stripe subscription throws scheduling error

I recently increased the prices of my Stripe subscription plans on my Laravel SASS application. Now, when a user cancels their subscription, it throws the following error:

"The subscription is managed by the subscription schedule sub_sched_XXXXXXXXXX, and updating any cancelation behavior directly is not allowed. Please update the schedule instead."

I'm using Laravel 5.6 and have this in my composer.json file: "laravel/cashier": "~7.0",

Basically, I get the subscription object and just call cancel(). E.g.:

$subscription->cancel();

This worked for years until I recently changed my prices. Is this a programming error on my part, or do I need to move my subscription plans off of schedules somehow? I'm really stumped here, because Googling has not turned up any useful results on this error.

Found the issue. The recent price change moved the subscriptions onto a schedule. I had to release the subscription schedule using the API here:
