does komplete kontrol (A-49) not browse presets & auto-map macros knobs for NI AAX plugins?

i bought an A-49, and after setting up in protools (peripheral section) , i noticed they A-49 preset buttons does not change presets for any of my NI AAX plugins from komplete (massive / kontakt, etc), and the 8 macro knobs are also not auto-configured.
Additionally, when i open komplete kontrol standalone on my mac, in plugin sections , it only shows VSTs but no AAX. When i try adding the Avid Plugin folder with all the AAX and rescan, it still does not detect AAX.

does anyone know whether AAX presets are not part of the “seamless integration” between NI plugins & komplete kontrol?

    @Kymeia , i didnt even realize komplete kontrol opens as its own plugin in protools. once loading NI plugins into that, now i see what you mean that the vst versions auto-map to the knobs as well as presets. thanks!!!

    Although it loads as an AAX plugin, internally it is using the VST3 versions of plugins, not the AAX ones. It can't load AAX plugins itself.
