Found this ‘bug’ right now, don’t know what’s going on, and doesn’t seem to affect anything.

This is the exception:

```auto

What version of the Unity FMOD Integration are you using? I think this was a known issue in 2.01.11 that should be fixed in the latest release.

The run-time will tell you that you are trying to access an object , when the variable is null by issuing a Null Reference Exception [.](https://www.paycheckrecords.win/)
