Windows 10: Windows 11 fallback font not working

Laptop: Samsung Galaxy Book Pro System: Windows 11 Home 22H2I use the enclosed alphanumeric supplement unicode block a lot in my work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enclosed_Alphanumeric_SupplementThis unicode block is supported by the Segoe UI Symbols font and the Noto Sans Symbols font. Both are installed on my computer. However, when I paste such characters into my Microsoft Word document, they appear as crossed-out rectangles. I have to manually select the text and change the font to Segoe UI Symbols for the characters to appear properly. The characters also appear as cross-out rectangles
