Direct Publisher adBreaks not Firing

Hey everybody, 

We've created our Roku channel using Direct Publisher, and we've inserted adBreaks pre roll and mid roll. Here's the syntax we're using: 

For some reason we're not seeing ad calls to our server at the midroll points. Anyone else seeing this behavior?

Thanks

Just a thought the vids aren't listed as 'ShortForm" in the file are they?   I only ask bc shortForm videos only have preroll, and don't allow for mid breaks IIRC

I think your problem is exactly like mine. I suppose you have "series" and after resuming from last session this is happening.
Roku team knew the bug and they are working on it!!
It's more than a month that I have this problem.

I still have same problem in my channel.
After resuming the series, ads are not starting all the time.
