The OP said they did not see first time home buyer in the exception list. That would indicate that the 1099-R entered was not coded as a IRA. Other retirement account types do not have a first-time home buyer exception.
(I am assuming that the interview was continued after the 1099-R summary screen or the exception list would not have been displayed.)
