Figma beta autolayout grid - text over shapes

Hi,

I’m testing out the beta auto layout grid and I’ve come across something peculiar and I was wondering if anyone else came across this issue? Is it possible to put text over a background shape? Auto layout does not like this for some reason, it shifts the shape up or down in the grid.

I also tried to apply horizontal auto layout and that does seem to work in terms of sitting above the shape however when I adjust the webpage frame that part isn’t responsive. See attached a few example images. 

Please let me know if anyone has had the same issue and how they were able to resolve this?

Thanks
