required attribute not working for “textarea” & “checkbox”

Hello,

i have found an issue for some for some of my contact forms. The required fields for “text” and “email” work just fine, but for the textarea, contact form does not make it an required field, if i use the same strategy. The same goes for “checkboxes” which i tested out, but after chaning it to “checkbox*” it still was not a required field.

The form template i use is as follows:

<em>All fields marked with * are mandatory</em>
[text* clientName placeholder "Name*"]
[email* email placeholder "E-Mail*"]
[tel phone placeholder "Phone"]
[text* companyName placeholder "Company Name*"]

<strong>I'm interested in:</strong>
[checkbox interests use_label_element "xyz" "asd" "qwe" "ghj" "jkl"]
[textarea* message placeholder "Leave a message*"]

Does anybody know of this issue and is able to help?
Thanks you!
Jan
