Phone number link takes me people app, not phone app

For some reason when I tap a phone number link in Edge or Cortana (as in, I search for a local business then tap the phone number to call them) it takes me to the people app where I have to tap the number again to call rather than it taking me to the phone app to call. It's an extra step and annoying. Is this new expected behavior?
