Default Alesis Mesh kit with Xpand2

What's up everyone. I am running Protools 2021 (just re-installed on a new Windows 10 workstation) and I have a Behringer X18 for input. I have had no problems using MIDI with my Korg Krome keyboard, but I recently bought an Alesis Mesh kit and I want to do some simple drums for demo purposes. So nothing fancy here.

I have created an instrument track with Xpand2, and it's not that the hits from the Alesis are not recognized, they're just sporadic. If I hit the snare multiple times, I may get sound 1 out of 5 times, and I'm hitting with medium force, but hitting harder doesn't seem to affect it. Trying different things, I created a MIDI track to test it out, and the meter is jumping on every hit, so I know the signal is getting over to PT. I was going to try a different drum plugin today.

Is this a velocity or maybe mapping issue? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.
