Microsoft Graph API @odata.count not returned when using $search parameter on messages endpoint

I am calling this endpoint: /users/{email-address}/mailFolders/Inbox/messages?$select=isRead,hasAttachments,subject,from,bodyPreview,receivedDateTime&$top=25&search="{search-term}"&$count=true

the response only returns @odata.context, @odata.nextLink, and value.

When removing the $search parameter from the query, the response returns @odata.count as well.

I am using the @odata.count to calculate how many pages of results there are. I would prefer to not use the skipToken and only use $top and $skip to paginate the results.

Anyone else encounter this before/have a workaround?
