Default Document Status not applying

I currently have our default document status for Teams documents set to “Draft”. Additionally, when you make a new document from our Corporate Templates it asks you what Tags and Status should be set (there are a couple required tags that prompt this popup). 

Despite having both of these in place, when I make a new document from our templates it does not get assigned a status. This means we end up with a lot of documents sitting without a status. It also makes it harder to update the status when editting a document as the dropdown is no longer available at the top of the screen. 

Any help in sorting this out is much appreciated!
