Problem intersecting hole centerline with sketch plane using 'Intersect 3D Elements' Function

I seem to be missing something. Recently we upgraded to V5-6 R2022. Now, when I am in sketcher, I cannot intersect a hole centerline with the sketch plane using the 'Intersect 3D Elements' function. In our previous version (V5-6 R2018), when in the 'Intersect 3D Elements' function in Sketcher, it would auto-detect the hole centerline and create a point. Now when I do this, the only thing I can do is select the hole surface and the intersection result is a circle. I've been all through the Sketcher settings and am unable to change the function's behavior.

Also, the 3D holes were created with the 'Hole' Function in the Part Design Workbench, and constraining to the hole centerline in the sketch is no problem.

Any help would greatly appreciated, Thank you.
