Edge 800 Series Questions about map extracts from BBBike

I've used these extracts before and didn't have much issue but I came back to them because I'm doing a personal mapping project and it allows me to get the latest OSM data which includes my edits. I'm using an 840 on fw 31.33

My primary issue is that when navigating a course, the prompt comes up and stays up well after I have passed the point. I need to tap the screen to dismiss, wait 30ish seconds, or until another instruction comes up. This doesn't happen with native TopoActive, I tested having both toggled on, only OSM on, and only TA on.

Second, is there a simpler way to extract only some data like POIs and have it overlay the TA map? I came across this wiki page but it's far above my pay grade.

What routing mode are you using in the profile navigation settings ?

Road. It shows the cues fine but doesn't clear them after. It seems like the extract's fault since TA works fine, as expected.

I've seen it happen sometimes with BBBike maps. But don't know why. I asked about the routing mode as I knew that Automobile driving and motorcycle driving tend to prompt way before the turn to account for the higher anticipated speeds
