- We have a ScriptableObject that holds an array of `AssetReference`s via `SerializeField`, and once all Addressables are downloaded, we load all banks accordingly.
- Events that are dynamically loaded at runtime using `EventReference` with a path string play correctly.
- However, events attached to prefabs using `StudioEventEmitter` do not seem to play as expected.
- We have tried using “Update Event Reference”, but it had no effect.

We would appreciate any guidance or clarification regarding this issue.

Hi,

Thank you for sharing the information.

Could I please get more info? Specifically:

- The FMOD for Unity version number you are using.
- Code snippets for the ScriptableObject.
- In FMOD Settings, please set the [logging level](https://www.fmod.com/docs/2.02/unity/settings.html#logging-level) to “Log”, enable [API error logging](https://www.fmod.com/docs/2.02/unity/settings.html#enable-api-error-logging), and post a log where the issue occurs?

Do you see any errors or warnings in the console when trying to play events through `StudioEventEmitter`?

When using Addressables to load prefabs that contain `StudioEventEmitter` components, please ensure the relevant banks are fully loaded prior to instantiating the prefabs.

If you haven’t already, please refer to our [**Asynchronous Loading Example**](https://fmod.com/docs/2.02/unity/examples-async-loading.html), which covers proper loading flow using Addressables.
