OneDrive connector "Provided by run-only user," but still saves files in builder account's OneDrive

I have a workflow that is triggered by a PowerApps button which populates a Word Document with data and saves it into the user's OneDrive for Business.

The OneDrive for Business action has been configured so that it runs as the user:

However, even through the flow runs successfully, it is saving the files to the system admin account that created the flow:

I have tried:

Deleting and re-creating the connection.
Deleting and re-creating the action.
Re-authenticating to the connection.
Removing and re-adding the Flow to the Power Apps button.
Reloading the Power App and re-authenticating to the connections as the user.

None of these has worked and OneDrive for Business keeps on saving to the wrong OneDrive.

Update: I think I have a lead.

In both cases where this is happening, it involves a workflow with steps copied from another workflow, where the old version was not in a Solution, but the new version is in a Solution.

The actions were inside of a conditional, which I copied over. I will see what happens if I re-create the conditional and its steps from inside of my workflows.

Nope, that was wrong.

I completely re-created the conditionals and their OneDrive for Business actions from scratch. They are still refusing to save the documents to the correct OneDrive account.

EDIT: OK here's a clue.

If I put a OneDrive action in a Conditional, it uses the sysadmin connector and saves to the sysadmin's OneDrive.

If I put a OneDrive action outside of the Conditional, it uses the "Run-only" user's connection as it's supposed to.

This is even if both actions are using the same connector.
