Rockets Do Not Propel Elytra in Bedrock 1.17/1.18

When I try to use a rocket to propel my elytra in my survival world, nothing happens. I use the rocket, and it doesn't propel me or launch me. I don't lose a rocket from my inventory from this. This happens all the time and hasn't worked at all since 1.17 for me. I waited to report figuring it would be fixed in 1.18.2, but it hasn't. I am aware of the other posts, but this issue HAS NOT been resolved on bedrock 1.18 even though it has been marked as resolved!
