Sidebar discussions menu not updating with scripted discussions

Hi, after finding the following post: Sidebar Chat Generator - Share | ServiceNow Developers I have implemented this into a PDI to investigate, however I am coming across a few issues:

  1. The discussion is created and gets posted to the activity section in the record view in SoW (with the correct members, records, etc.) 
  2. The discussion is incrementing the sidebar counter in the banner in the top right 
  3. The discussion is not appearing in the All, Unread or This record tab of the sidebar discussions menu 

     

When I create a new discussion manually it triggers everything correctly and appears in the relevant tabs, so is there a record missing or is someone aware of what controls discussions appearing in the menu?

If I click 'open discussion' from the activity section and add a comment then the discussion will, from then on, appear in the menu. Any suggestions would be great as I appear to have hit a dead end. I can generate a discussion via a script and add all the content I desire, but as it doesn't appear in the sidebar discussions menu it doesn't fit the purpose of notifying agents.
