Text Tool still buggy in 24.4.1 (build 2)

I upgraded to Premiere 24.4.1 because of previous issues with the Text tool and while those issues are gone, there's a new issue where all of my titles are changed to this fancy, cursive text.  If I choose a different text style, the text does not update to reflect the change made in the essential graphics pane. The only way I can modify it is by going to 'linked style' and choosing a preset I've made.  But making changes to that, reverts it back to this fancy style of text.  

Anyone else experiencing this?
