Hi there!

After following along the Wwise 301 course I have attempted to replace some of the existing sounds with my own recordings.

Unfortunately I am running into an error when replacing sounds within the WAG. I import my new, original sound into Wwise, uncheck the old sounds (in this case, replacing the dirt footsteps) but when launching WAG either from the Wwise Launcher or from Unity, the new sound does not play and it simply plays the old sound.

After profiling with Wwise to look for the problem, I'm getting an error where my new sound shows up highlighted in red saying 'Error: Selected Media Not Available'

More specifically the profiler displays: Event Triggered --> Play --> Selected Media Not Available --> Play Failed --> Event Finished

Any idea on how to solve this?

Versions all align with the Wwise 301 course requirements: Wwise 2019.1.11, WAG 2019.1.11, Unity 2018.4.32f1
