1099-R taxable (box2) doesnt' show up in 4b

I took a taxable distribution of about $400 from my IRA and received a 1099-R with that amount reflected in Box2.  I imported the 1099-R, verified all boxes were correctly imported, and double verified in the Income section that everything showed up correctly.

I finished my return and did a live share with a TT Expert who verified everything was correctly.  When I saved a PDF version of my return, neither line 4a or 4b was populated (blank).  I tried to contact Support and the tax expert was poorly informed and tried all sorts of strange explanations then just dropped the chat entirely and said she could not help.

What do I do?

I had already submitted the return to the IRS by the time I noticed the error.  Neither Turbotax expert noticed the absence because they didn't check the 1040, only that I had entered the data into Personal Income correctly.

 

Both the IRS & state accepted the return despite the omission. Not sure what to do.
