Discarded Picket Sign Enemy Spawn Bug

[mechahamham]

In the hero version of the 'Discarded Picket Sign' tip mission, 'Find the heads of the Dockworker's protest and talk them down.', the majority of enemy spawns don't appear until AFTER you defeat the mission boss and end the mission.

 

During the mission, looking at the boss:

 

 

After defeating the boss, ending the mission, looking back at where I was just standing:

 

 

An ambush appears right after you go through the dialogue at the beginning of the mission with the Scrapyarder foreman protest leader. A 'fight' encounter between Scrapyarders and Cage Consortium also spawns, but those and the boss' group are the only spawns that appear until you actually defeat the boss. Then the rest of the mission's enemies appear.

However, I've tested this multiple times today while working on my Cage Consortium defeat badge, and have had this same behavior happen on every map I've seen. This behavior seems to be new to the most recent patch. I've done this same mission before on other 'pure hero' characters to work that particular defeat badge before the most recent patch and haven't encountered this behavior.
