No sound from imported MIDI

Hi,

I set up a new track with Kontakt Instrument 8Dio Adagio Basses. I use the pencil tool to draw in some notes, and everything works properly. I hear the notes as I draw, I hear the notes on playback. If I remove this entire midi section and import a midi file, I see the track levels are receiving data so I know it's playing, but no sound.

I made sure it wasn't a transpose issue by moving the notes through different parts of the piano roll, and still get nothing.

Strangely, if I leave whatever notes I imported and draw some new notes next to those, the new notes play the sound.

I thought it must be a bad midi file, so I import the midi file again, this time into another track with another Kontakt Instrument and it plays perfectly.

So, my guess is the 8Dio Instrument does not play nice with imported MIDI?

I'm working with S1 4.6.1 on a 2013 iMac i7 OSX 10.15.5
