How to disable math autocorrect in PowerPoint

Hi all,

I have disabled the "Replace Text as you Type" option globally via a GPO policy because we don't want our users to be auto corrected. After disabling and working in a PowerPoint document I found out I was still being auto corrected. Appearently there are 2 seperate settings for which the one actually matters I can't find a way to disable it.

This is the setting I was successfully able to disable

Via this policy

However, the policy which really matters is this one:

I haven't found any GPO setting, registry key or script to turn this setting off globally for all our users so I was hoping one of you struggled with this before and can help out. Thanks in advance!
