CC#1 in Logic Pro X

Trying to use Wave Ring to control CC#1 in Logic.
The data gets through, but when I use Prefs>Automation>Automation Quick Access, it connects it to the volume lane.
If I try moving the CC#1 Controller line first then the "learn" function, it fails to make it work.
Has anybody successfully done this?

The plugin instrument I'm targeting has "Dynamics" assigned to CC#1. I can reach it in Standalone Kontakt, and Pro Tools, just fine... something in Logic is blocking the connection. Any hints? :)
