Media Encoder Uses Proxies in Render

When I send a render to Media Encoder, it will encode the video using proxies instead of my high resolution media despite the option in media encoder not being checked. All of my footage is properly linked. I can enable/disable proxies in premiere pro and the watermark appears/disappears. The only way I can get it to behave is by disabling proxies in premiere pro first, and then sending the render to Media Encoder, which I’ve never had to do and is not the expected behavior. This has burned me several times on very long renders with short deadlines. Proxies seem to work as expected when I render directly from Premiere Pro.
