Hey there,
After upgrading our FMOD Unity integration to 2.02.02 from 2.02.00, we receive the following warning:
FMOD: Couldn't find base folder with GUID 06ae579381df01a4a87bb149dec89954; defaulting to Plugins/FMOD
While this seemed harmless, it resulted in our command line builds on our build machine to lose all their event references due to what I believe is the FMODStudioSettings asset being loaded after it’s referenced for the first time, as illustrated in this log:

I’m confident that this was fixed by manually setting the folder’s GUID to what was expected, however this caused us a good headache for some time. Thought it would be worth raising as a bug!
Using Unity 2019.4.26f1 and FMOD Studio 2.02.02.
Thanks,
Alex
