Text replacement not working with Siri on macOS 15.1.1

I am not sure since which version but "text replacement" does not work with type to siri.

I used to set text "qwe" to "set reminder" and use type to Siri quickly.

Haven't used it for months because testing Apple intelligence.

Now I turned it off, cos I want Siri other language as eng.

But somehow the "text replacement" stopped working within Type to Siri.

Everywhere else working fine.

Is it just me?

Yes, I am experiencing this too. I was using ';re' to 'Remind me about this' when I want to save an Outlook email to reminders.

It'd be great to have text replacements working again in type to Siri. It works everywhere else on the OS, but I don't need this particular text replacement to work anywhere else!

Same under macOS Sequoia 15.2, Text Replacements are still broken even with right click > Substitutions > Text Replacements enabled. What's even more curious, as this function syncs over iCloud, it still works under iOS 18.2.1 if you activate Settings > Accessibility > Siri > Type to Siri 🤔 ??
