Why does TurboTax Online continue to use the standard deduction, even after I've changed my deduction to itemized?

TurboTax Online 2020 has computed that my itemized deductions are greater than the standard deduction ($24,800 for MFJ). And as it prompted, I changed my deduction method to itemized. When printing all forms, there's a Schedule A buried towards the end, and line 17 is definitely larger than $24,800. However, it still enters the standard deduction amount on Form 1040 line 12, and does not include a copy of Schedule A with the other forms to be filed. I have tried to change the deduction method to standard and then back to itemized. I have also tried Clear and Start Over. Neither resolved the issue.
