Should you wish to access your specific version's documentation, please download the offline documentation from the Audiokinetic Launcher and check the Offline Documentation option in Wwise Authoring.

Cannot seek in sound that is within a continuous container with special transitions.

This error happens if seeking was requested on a Random/Sequence container that is set to Continuous and have Transition Type set to XFade (amp), XFade (power), Trigger Rate, or Sample Accurate. Those transitions may require seeking into sounds that are not ready to play yet (the second sound of the transition).

Recommended resolution step:

Avoid calling AK::SoundEngine::SeekOnEvent() on Events that will play a Random/Sequence container in Continuous mode.
