The logic in the AssetManager to determine if a scanned Blueprint should be added to the primary asset directory is wrong if that blueprint has an active redirect targeting it. The simplest way to repro is to set up a package redirect for one of the template projects, which happens for any project made using a template.
The proper fix is make sure the redirect logic is handled properly in the blueprint scanning code
1. Compile EngineTest
2. Change
+PackageRedirects=(OldName="TP_FirstPerson",NewName="/Script/EngineTest")
to
+PackageRedirects=(OldName="/Script/TP_FirstPerson",NewName="/Script/EngineTest")
in DefaultEngine.ini for EngineTest
3. Load the editor, then create a new Actor blueprint in /Game/Tests/Gameplay/AssetManager/ExampleBlueprints
4. Shut down and reload the editor
5. Open Asset Audit window (window->developer tools), Hit Add Primary Asset Type and select EngineTestPrimaryAssetBlueprint
6. Your actor blueprint should not be added to the window. If it is this bug exists
