M1 gcode command no longer works on mk4?

On the mk3 I was editing print .gcode files and adding the M1 Conditional Stop command to stop the print and display a line of text to the LCD, which would require the user to press the knob to continue. It doesn't seem like this command is working on the mk4. When I add this line to a .gcode file no text is displayed on the LCD screen and the printer stops with no option to restart the print (pressing in the knob just navigates to the highlighted menu option). I end up having to reset the printer to escape the file execution. Is there an equivalent command that works for the mk4?

Note: I've been able to display text to the screen (without stopping the print) using the M117 command.

Example code:

M1 Ready to proceed? ; display text to screen and wait for user input

Have you tried M0 (M zero)?

Yes, M0 gives the same result - pauses the print with no option to recover/start again.
