What modifications need to be made to the unity FPC script to allow unity to play footsteps via wwise integration?

Question

I have been working in this for weeks to no avail.

• I have footsteps in wwise audio tab(random sequence containers under a switch container)
• Have created an footsteps event that plays successfully when the space bar is pressed
• Saved the event in the sound bank successfully 
• Attached the event to a music player object in unity and set to start
• Attached the footstep switch to a box collider in game

When the game starts here is what happens 

• I hear the footsteps when the player drops (awake)
• I can enter the box collider and hear one footstep in enter and one upon leaving the collider 
• I do not hear footsteps is succession wen moving about within the collider 

Hoping to correct this I made changes to the unity footstep script on FPC 

• Commenting out all references to unity audio sources and adding a call to the wwise footstep event
• This created no change 

This is driving me crazy and I cannot find the answer to this problem anywhere on reddit, unity or wwise websites 

 

Am I missing some critical component

Please understand that I am a composer not a programmer but willing to dive in to anything to fix this problem

 

Also, the wwise demo scene footsteps work properly 

I tried moving the FPC from that scene into my scene and it would not work 

I am on the 2017 versions of wwise and unity 

All other audio / Music implementations work properly 

 

Thanks for any assistance and please let me know what other information you might need to solve the problem 

 

Thanking in advance
