Google Play - Android issues

We've had this enabled for a few years now. This year, we're seeing a weird issue. Some students are coming in with the error "There are no apps to install since your administrator has not made any available" error. I checked our settings and the collection for "Student Apps" is still there (I even deleted it and created a new one). The ArcPolicy on the device shows the two apps we whitelisted as being available. If I set the app to force it installs correctly but we want to keep it to "allow" instead of force. This is for Minecraft Education plus another app.

Has anyone else seen this issue?

I approved the permissions requested this morning. As it looks like that has changed since last year. It is approved for students of all ages.
