I forgot my 1095A, fix it with 1080x and check, received letter later saying not to use 1080x

Originally I forgot to include my 1095A form. A week later I noticed my blunder and quickly filled out a 1080x form with a check with the amount that TurboTax said to write a check for. I mailed that out and the check has been cashed. Before receiving my 1080x the IRS mailed me a letter saying to not use a 1080x but instead a 8962. They've already cashed the check so I'm not sure what my next step is. The 8962 form I filled out says that I owe them the amount that the first check was for, I think. Is a response from me even needed? Do I send a letter saying exactly this?

There should be a phone number on the notice the IRS sent.  It might be best to contact them directly and ask how they would like you to handle, as it is always best to respond to an IRS notice.
