Turn prompts for navigation along courses suddenly disappeared (FR955, Software Version 26.08)

Question

Turn prompts are no longer displayed on my FR955 when navigating on courses created/transfered from Komoot or even from Garmin Connect. Only the distance to the final destiation is shown. Only when the watch recalculates the route using Garmin maps, turn prompts are shown. Routing along courses with turn prompts worked flawlessly until recently, so I suspect this behavior is linked to an updated FR software version. I would appreciate feedback if on your end turn promts are still available on FR955 under s.v. 26.08 when navigating along courses. 
 Thanks a lot, best regards, Michael

Hi, daniscross obtain a feedback from Garmin support: 
 This should be fixed now 
 " A backend fix for this has been released to Connect and applies to newly sent courses. Any affected courses that are currently on your device will need to be deleted from the device. You can then resend the course via Garmin Connect to have the changes take effect. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and for your patience while we worked to address this issue ."

I'm happy, because i wasn't silly opening this Bug Report 15 days ago ... but it's not relevant to F7 specific beta but Garmin Connect 
 Since beta 23.35 - Courses navigation - sync courses --> Turn Notification not included, newly created and old ones
