PlayerStart in level instances does not start player at location after transitioning between maps in PIE

PlayerStart in level instances does not start player at location after transitioning between maps in PIE

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Make an empty level (LEVEL A) with a plane and a player start
  2. Collapse that player start into a level instance
  3. Make another level (LEVEL B) and add a way to travel to LEVEL A (Via OpenLevel Blueprint node, or any other way)
  4. Start a PIE session in LEVEL B, and trigger the travel to LEVEL A
  5. Observe that PIE now spawns the player at the origin, while a cooked build still spawns them at the player start
