@ceebeez have you had any successes with work arounds? I am having the same issue. I have tried implementing the following function but with no positive outcome.

function escape_acf_field_titles($field) {
    if ($field['type'] == 'post_object' && isset($field['choices'])) {
        $escaped_choices = array();
        foreach ($field['choices'] as $post_id => $post_title) {
            $post_title = get_the_title($post_id); 
            $escaped_choices[$post_id] = esc_html($post_title);  
        }
        $field['choices'] = $escaped_choices; 
    }
    return $field;
}
add_filter('acf/load_field', 'escape_acf_field_titles');
