That is path text, right?

It doesn't work with path text. https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/add-text-work-with-type-objects.html

Dave,

 

Editing can be done by clicking the More button at the bottom of your post, then click Edit Message/Reply.

 

Owing to misuse of editing capability, this is only available at a certain level of participation, I am unsure which.

No image, but either align left or align right works fine for me when using text wrap.

How are you doing it?
