Dash lines display incorrectly on rectangles with rounded corners
The lower right corner is rendered incorrectly if you apply rounded corners to rectangles with dashed lines.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Draw a rectangle, 3 x 4 inches (for example).
2. Apply 0,25 in of corner radius.
3. Change the stroke to 6 pt and set the dashed line at your taste.
4. Look at the bottom right corner of the rectangle.
Please check the attached images.
Broken since Ai CC2022.

Currently, if a regular shape with square corners has the "align dashes to corners and path ends" option selected, the dotted stroke functions as expected. However, if the same shape has rounded corners, with the same option selected, the dotted line becomes offset and doesn't behave in a controllable or expected manner.
Please could we have either a feature to snap the dotted strokes to particular points along a shape, or could we have an option for shapes with rounded corners to force more regularised dotted stroke behaviour?
Many thanks!

Rian, 29.8.4 is not the latest build... However, I can see the dashes aren’t perfectly aligned (although not as bad as they were in 2022).
I tried to check how the distributing changes if I round corners with a widget or with a Round Corners effect — there is one, and none of two works precisely. -

This is an issue again in 29.8.4
Alignment of dashed strokes on rectangles with rounded corners is all over the place :/

It's not just round-cornered rectangles; the entire aligned dash system has been broken going from v24 to v25. For example, on an ellipse, the dashes come completely off the path when aligned.

I can replicate this bug. It behaves a little better when it's set to "Preserve exact dash gap lengths" rather than "Align dashes to corners and path ends...." (see screenshot)
The little "tail" glitch goes away when adjusting corner radii with the corner radius widgets -
The issue persists in CC2022 check the picture:

See attached image. rounded corners with dashes not working properly.
