SideChain Compression Broken in Latest Build

Since the latest major update, I cannot get sidechain compression to do anything. I've been using premiere project where I bounce the audio to Audition each week for the sole purpose of sidechain compression on music. Now, rather than compressing the music track (keying off of the dialog track), it just applies compression all the time as if I hadn't assigned a side chain bus. (Build 13.0.0.519)

I have this problem now! The sidechain is working perfectly during playback but then stops working after I mix it down.

Are you attempting to use the bundled Dynamics processing tool? If so I've tested it here on Mac and I can confirm it is not working. I've also tested the implementation using Pro-C 2 by FabFilter (it supports extenral side-chaining). This works as expected. For now I would suggest using something other than Abobe's bundled options until the issue is resolved.

Bummer. (this is on PC). I don't have any other plugins but I will look into that. Auto ducking works OK but is far inferior since I like to only suppress sounds above 100hz or so with side chain. I'll keep my eyes out for an update to the software.
