I'm working through lesson 2 of the 301 certification and am stuck on the attenuation spheres section - steps 3 through to 16

Step 3 states:

In the attached AkAmbient component, set the Show Attenuation Sphere property to Current_Event_Only.

By selecting the Current_Event_Only option, you would expect to see a red sphere representing the Attenuation in the Scene view, but you do not. By default these Max Distance values in the Attenuation ShareSets are not included as metadata in the SoundBanks, so to be able to generate the spheres you need to visit the SoundBank Settings.

My problem is, the red attenuation sphere displays straight away when selecting 'current_event_only' but the guide says it shouldn't be visible. The radius already appears to be set to 51 too but according to the guide, after following steps 4 - 9, it should be 35 to start.

Furthermore, steps 10 - 16 go through how to change the radius of the attenuation sphere in the Wwise project rather than in unity but when following those steps, changing things in Wwise does absolutely nothing in Unity

I've gone over these steps about 10 times now to make sure I'm following them correctly but getting the same results every time. What's going on here? Some help would be hugely appreciated
