Prophet Rev2 owners - could someone explain the amp envelope to me?

EDIT: this is solved, my controller was causing the issue, not the excellent Rev2

If you have time to help me understand this I'd really appreciate it! I'm pretty new to synths so I may just be missing something.

I'm not understanding how the amp envelope is behaving and I'll give you an example:

1. I start a new, basic program

2. Open filter all the way

3. On amp envelope I set attack, decay and release to zero and sustain to max.

On any other synth I've used the resulting behavior would be, if I hold a key on the keyboard at this point, the sound attacks instantly to full volume then sustains at full volume and then instantly ends when release the key.

On my Rev2 at this point, when I press a key I get a split second tone then, almost instantly down to zero volume. So, when holding a key, where I would expect infinite sound, I just get basically a click.

Is this how DSI intends this filter to work?
