Can't Cook Soundwave Using Start/Stop Recording Output Functions in 4.24

Development Audio
1

I have been unable to get the reference to the soundwave when using the start/stop recording output functions in the latest version of Unreal (4.24). I get a warning saying unable to cook soundwave. A soundwave uasset gets created, but when I play it, there is no audio.

Below is an example of the my blueprint script:

Here is a snippet of my console displaying the logs where the soundwave was unable to cook:

Here is proof that the wave file gets generated:

Is there a step I am missing? If anyone could assist, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks.

I am having the same problem! When I try to load this file into a Metasound…I also get an error and nothing plays. Did you ever resolve this issue?
