Separating speakers when Premiere doesn't recognize them

I have a short clip with two speakers.  Premiere's transcription is doing fairly good understanding the words, but it doesn't recognize that there are two people speaking.  I have the feature turned on to where it is supposed to recognize them automatically, but the voices are pretty similar, so I suppose it isn't distinguishing a difference.  It puts all the lines on one speaker.  I just need to know how to tell it where the second person starts talking, how to separate what it sees as one line into two speakers.

@TiaM213 Make sure you're looking at the Source clip transcript, and then you can do the following:

  1. Put your cursor somewhere at the point where the other person starts talking.
  2. Click the "Split Segment" button found above the transcript
  3. In the newly created segment click on the "..." next to the Speaker name and change the speaker there
