Single fix needed for new user - WAN 2.1 when ComfyUI expecting WAN 2.2 VAE

Help Needed

I am 99% of the way there for my initial run... but getting stuck.

I'm trying to use a ComfyUI-OVI workflow as outlined here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9WmKGxTTdI

My test/example workflow is getting stuck with the OVI Wan Component loader, as I've somehow loaded a 2.1 VAE, when I've specified 2.2. I can't find any path for the 2.1 I must have downloaded? I assumed I could just find/delete 2.1 VAE and 2.2 would work since it's in the correct spot. I think.

As such, I think it's crashing my voice to text encoder. Here are my paths for each:
