Map Visualization with Pies not working on Shared Dashboards

I created a report in Power BI Desktop, which contains several Map visuals. The locations are the same on all the visuals, but there's only one visual with pies.

I published the report to Power BI Service. All fine.

I pinned the live page with map pie to a new dashboard. All fine.

I shared this dashboard with a colleague. My colleague views all the correct info, except for the map with pies: this visual suddenly shows no data anymore. Tested with other colleagues, same issue. I suppose this is a bug?

Okay, just found out it was because the addresses were not categorized as places in the one map visual with the pies. Turns out changing the data category to place resolved the issue!
