Lose reverb at higher sample rates when exporting wav

I think I've hit a bug. When exporting my music as a wav file, I lose the reverb when using samples rates of 96kHz or 192 kHz. The reverb is fine when using 44.1kHz or 48kHz. Changing the bit depth (e.g. 24 or 32) doesn't affect the reverb. I'm running Sibelius 7.5.1 build 209 64-bit on Windows 10. If this is fixed in the newer versions, I'll upgrade. :-)

You might want to suggest this on the official Sibelius/Avid Technical helpdesk/forums at www. Sibelius .com
(space deliberately added after dots as this site doesn't allow url links).

You need to sign up there with your Sibelius registration details to post.

I doubt if this is a bug. It probably wasn't thought necessary to be able to produce reverb at that level. Why do you need a higher bit rate. Sibelius is not intended to produce anywhere near the output quality of a DAW. It is for reference only. Albeit, it does a pretty good job of it.
