Premiere Pro no longer transcribing filler words.

Just like it says, doesn't matter what I do or how many times I re-transcribe or convert to static transcript or whatever it will transcribe everything perfectly just ignoring filler words so they cannot be selected despite clearly being in the audio just not the transcription. 
I feel like the algorithm being used is already ignoring then when transcribing but then is leaving them out in the script.

    If the filler words are clearly present in the audio but missing from the transcript, it sounds like the transcription is filtering them out before they can be selected or removed.

    I’m having the same issue and using Premiere Pro 26.3.0 (Build 93) in Windows 11 Enterprise. Filler words is checked and it’s finding some of them, but not all. There are many that are clearly audible in the recording but nothing at all is appearing in the transcript. This worked fine until a couple of months ago and it all of a sudden became an issue with all audio files I’ve tried.

    @Royals and Rogues,

     

    This is working correctly for me in PR 26.2.2 on Win 11. Please confirm that you have “Filler words” selected in the Transcript view options.
