I have tried to edit the meeting options as you suggest, but when I set "Who can present" to "Specific People," all that shows up next to it is "To assign a role to a participant, invite them to the meeting individually." I cannot select the external presenter I have already invited. And when I set "Who can present" to "People in my organization and Guests" the invited external presenter still comes in as an Attendee.

It's definitely buggy. I no longer can do it and have to wait until the actual meeting to start to change the permissions for the external presenters.
However I have raised a ticket to Microsoft Premier Support and this is their response:
"PG confirmed they will be rolling out this feature in lower ring first which means the fix will roll out for General Availability in 4-6 weeks, it is a Standard ETA. "
So hopefully we will see this improved in a month or two.
