Unexpected behavior with two objects referencing the same file.

Hey all, here's my problem, see my Linkedin Post for a video demonstrating my issue: 

https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7272633088751378432/

Wwise v. 2024.1.0.8669

I’m working through some functionality early in the Wwise 101 course and could use a bit of help troubleshooting an issue.

I’ve set up two separate SFX objects, both referencing the same .wav file. I’ve designated different start and end trim points for each object, but when I switch between them during playback, both seem to play from the same start point, regardless of the settings.

Interestingly, if I slightly adjust the trim points, the playback aligns correctly. However, when I switch to the other object, its playback now follows the updated trim points, rather than its original settings.

I also noticed that assigning both objects to an event causes them to play back from the same start position.

Is this a bug, or am I missing a specific setting or workflow here? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
