Since the roof was placed in service in October 2022, the first year's depreciation is based on 0.0758% because it is only covering mid-October through December.  When this is calculated, the amount is $33.

 

Subsequent years, the depreciation will be based on 3.636% or 3.637%, depending on the year.  This calculates to be about $156 per year as you expected.  

 

If the information onscreen is saying it will be $33 per year for the remaining 27.5 years, that is incorrect.  Pay close attention to the amount calculated for your 2023 return, as it should show $156 instead of $33.
