Hi Bill, I think there's already a bug ticket for this at https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/4991 and a potential fix at https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/pull/5001
If you have time or interest in helping to test the potential fix, please add any feedback you may have into the PR itself. Currently, that PR is waiting for testers/reviewers before it would be merged and backported.
