How to clear Wwise log spam on opening map with AK components? (UE 4.26)

+2 votes

When opening a map which has actors with AK components the log is spammed with a message for each. 

It appears to be linked to code related to loading the icons for the emitters. These are stored as PNG files and cause a loading stall.

Here is the call stack:

The spam itself looks like this:

etc. 

Given how many AK components live in our large maps this is causing hundreds of such log messages to appear on load.
Is there a way to ignore these or a better way to handle this loading? 

Please let me know.
Thanks,
Alec

Just want to bump this as we've updated the integration to 2019.2.9.7459.1876 and it persists.

This isn't something we can mute so any help would be appreciated
