Amending a return says no changes

I recently e-filed and now have another 1099-R, so I went to amend the return.  After I entered the 1099-R information (retirement plan distribution), TurboTax came back and said that nothing has changed and that I shouldn't amend the return.  However, I do see changes on lines 16a on the 1040 form.  I realize that the totals (and taxes) didn't change, but I think the information needs to be submitted.

When I look at the 1040-X, line 16a is not included, and in the generated return, copy 2 of the 1040 is completely blank.

Please let me know if these are TurboTax errors, or if the return should not be amended!

Thanks!
