Conditionally required entity reference fields do not get * to indicate required

Problem/Motivation

I have an entity reference field that is conditionally required based on the choice in a select list. When I choose the proper trigger value, the field does not get the *. (It does still become required, though.) This behavior depends on the type of selection widget that I choose. If I have the autocomplete, it fails to get the *. If I have a select widget, it does get the *.

Steps to reproduce

Create a content type that has a select list field and an entity reference field that uses the autocomplete widget.
Create the dependency that the entity reference field is required based on a selected value in the select list field.
Create a piece of content and select the trigger value from the select list field.
Note that the entity reference field still does not have the *.
