Polylines Not Inheriting Attributes After Split

I have a large polyline feature class in ArcGIS pro. When I split a line some of the new attributes for the two new lines differ from the original line. For example I have a material attribute and when I split the line the two new lines will be Asbestos Cement where the old one was PVC. This only happens with some attributes, others remain the same after splitting. How do I ensure that all the attributes are inherited after splitting?

Do you have domains on the field(s)?  If so, that would probably be in the Split Policy of the domain.

If it is 'Default', should populate with the value defined as Default for that Field.  If set to "Duplicate', it should copy what was originally there to the newly created features.

Update: the attributes are inheriting correctly now. It appears it was a bug that went away after updating ArcGIS pro.
