Table Column Header Word Wrap Inconsistency

I've got a Power BI report that has a table with word wrap.

The column headers when wrapped to 2 lines look fine.

But when the wrap goes to 3 lines, the bottom line gets chopped:

Even 4 lines of text has the correct spacing underneath.

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Power BI seems to have a problem with the column header with a hyphen.

Through turning off 'Auto-sized width' I was able to find a way to work around the strange hyphen spacing.

 

Thanks.
