Using Sync in Lightroom Classic

I have constructed a preset that adjusts the items in the Basic section, the WB, the Tone Curve and the Lens Correction.  The preset uses Auto to adjust the Basic section.   When I appy it to an individual image it works fine.  It uses the "as shot" for white balance, the Auto for the basic settings,  medium contrast tone curve and lastly the proper lens correction for the lens used.

However, if I try to sync the image being used to others the Auto adjust does not seem to pass through to all the other images.  Instead the settings from the basic section of the image being synced is applied to all the other images.  What I want to happen is to have Auto applied to all the other images.  Everything else works, the tone curve, the lens correction and the WB are fine.  Either I'm doing something wrong when syncing or there is a bug that doesn't allow Auto to be applied to the syscing files.  I can see that it's been applied in the original image as it is grayed out.  But all the other synced images have the auto button still active in the Basic section.  Logic would  tell me that if the preset uses auto properly on individual images then it should extend itself to the images being synced.
