ElasticSearch no permissions for [indices:data/read/msearch] despite having the permission

I'm running into the weirdest permission issue for _msearch.

When running simple _search with the same query, everything runs perfectly.

POST /job/_search

{"query":{"bool":{"must":[{"bool":{"must":{"bool":{"should":[{"multi_match":{"query":"s","fields":["title"],"type":"best_fields","operator":"or","fuzziness":2}},{"multi_match":{"query":"s","fields":["title"],"type":"phrase","operator":"or"}},{"multi_match":{"query":"s","fields":["title"],"type":"phrase_prefix","operator":"or"}}],"minimum_should_match":"1"}}}}]}},"size":10,"_source":{"includes":["*"],"excludes":[]}}

When running it with _msearch I get the permission error

POST /job/_msearch

{}
{"query":{"bool":{"must":[{"bool":{"must":{"bool":{"should":[{"multi_match":{"query":"s","fields":["title"],"type":"best_fields","operator":"or","fuzziness":2}},{"multi_match":{"query":"s","fields":["title"],"type":"phrase","operator":"or"}},{"multi_match":{"query":"s","fields":["title"],"type":"phrase_prefix","operator":"or"}}],"minimum_should_match":"1"}}}}]}},"size":10,"_source":{"includes":["*"],"excludes":[]}}

{
    "error": {
        "root_cause": [
            {
                "type": "security_exception",
                "reason": "no permissions for [indices:data/read/msearch] and User [name=public_api, backend_roles=[], requestedTenant=null]"
            }
        ],
        "type": "security_exception",
        "reason": "no permissions for [indices:data/read/msearch] and User [name=public_api, backend_roles=[], requestedTenant=null]"
    },
    "status": 403
}

Here are my permissions in Kibana:
