I still don't know why that's happening, Matt. I'd be surprised if it were part of Premiere Elements' programming.
But if you're recording your narration onto a blank timeline, it might be worth using a third-party voice recorder. I use Sound Forge, but the free program Audacity will do -- and, as I've said, Windows itself includes a good, basic voice recorder. You can then save your audio as a WAV or MP3 and import it into your video project like any other media.
When I'm working on a project, I typically look over my media and find the story, type up my narration in a Word document and then record it as a WAV file. I can then put the WAV file onto my timeline and use it as the bones to add my media to.
