I think I found it with some help from our IT Team. Here is the source article, but I enabled this setting and it worked!
By selecting this feature in retired, it seemed to go away. Not sure if this will work long term as they actually retire it, but now it works just fine. I'm going to bring this back up with our MSFT contacts, but in the short term... give it a shot.
If you have any additional thoughts on it, I'd love to hear it.
