Alternate POI Name Table

I am attempting to use the Alternate POI Name table as described here.

I created my locator successfully and get returns from the Alternate POI name table, but I would like to set it up to return the primary POI name. For example, if one is to search UCLA (from alternate POI name table), I want the return University of California- Los Angeles as the Place Name, similar to how the Alternate Street Name works. 

I have added a Primary Name Indicator field and attributed each row in the Alternate POI Name with "No", but I still will get the Alternate Name as the Place Name return. 

Is there a preferred POI Name setting that I am missing?

I am also having the same issue.  No matter what I do I cannot get the locator to return the primary name.

@BradNiemand - any input on this topic? I am looking to do the same thing. Looks like ESRI addressed this with Alternate Street Names but is possibly still lacking it for Alternate POIs?
