Advanced Lightning doesn't work correctly (or at least the same as tutorial) in "bouncey" setting

I'm following the video copilot Grid tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vXiKSvc_O0). When he changes the Advanced Lighting effect to "bouncey" my lighting doesn't look the nearly the same, still like a strike rather than a cloud/knot of bolts. Similarly, no matter where I place the Direction point when using the "bouncey" type, the lighting always point to the right never the left. Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks.

Andrews's tutorials move fairly quickly but they are usually good. Without seeing your timeline with all the modified properties of the layer revealed (uu) it's hard to say what you left out.

Oddly, after restarting my computer, the effect displays correctly, but if I change the magnification to 50% or change any of the effect settings, it reverts back to the incorrect rendering of the lighting. Makes me think there is some render setting I have set wrong. I've cleared the cache, but the problem persists.
