    I just got off the phone with Microsoft support.

    Seemed that the GUI for setting this up didn't work and after running a command showed that PWA was disabled - PWAEnabled : Disabled

    We ran these in PowerShell (we changed the name here to YOUR tenant name, and YOUR site):
    Connect-SPOService -url https://M365TenantNameHere-admin.sharepoint.com
    Get-SPOSite -Identity https://M365TenantNameHere.sharepoint.com/sites/PWASiteNameHere |fl 
    #PWAEnabled : Disabled
    Set-SPOSite -Enable $true -identity https://M365TenantNameHere.sharepoint.com/sites/PWASiteNameHere

     

     

     

    Now it works, I had a few sites that I created, so we ran the command a few times.  This is what it should be.  Seems when it was going through, it somehow changed the PWAEnabled: Disabled when it should be Enabled.  The graphic above shows when we executed and got the result below and checked and it was enabled.  Originally it was disabled.
