Duplicate Azure Device when onboarding Defender for Endpoint

Hi

I have a device which is "Microsoft Entra registered" with a owner assigned, they have logged into Microsoft account their device.

We have onboarded the device to Defender for Endpoint and it now shows a 2nd device entry with the same name, no join type but Microsoft Defender for Endpoint as its Security Settings Management. This is obviously created when onboarded but why does AZ not sort out duplicate devices?

 

Wen assigning the device to a group it causes issues as the device shows twice

    Correct in your ENTRA Connect enable the hybrid AD join features and sync your devices to Entra Connect and delete the registered devices and any stale device

      hi yes this setting is on.

       

      These aren't duplicates in defender but duplicates in Azure Devices. As per below
