LR not automatically removing dead pixels

Installed the newest version today, and found that my LR isn't automatically removing all the dead pixels. In the half of the gallery I edited on the previous version (v 14.xx), it's fine. But everything from the point I installed the new version (15.0.1), I have dead or hot pixels in each photo.

For dead pixels or hot pixels, the removal is typically accomplished with noise reduction. Can you compare the noise reduction settings in the Details panel for on older image that is fine and a newer image that is not? I suspect that the settings are different between the two.
