Default 14SG Variometer (Melody)

I have been playing with the Variometer on the 14SG and have been unable to get the "Melody" portion to work. I have seen a video on youTube where the Variometer gives accending tones and descending tones on the overseas version of the radio but mine just beeps (Like a warning Beep and not a melody).

I have tried to activate the alarms, deactivating the alarms, activating the melody, and deactivating the melody.

In an makeshift test setup I put the GPS Sensor into a plastic bag so I could vary the pressure and test the sounds.

I have tried it in flight with the same results.

Any ideas? Is the melody part of a future software revision or am I doing it wrong.

Here is the YouTube Video showing what I want my radio to do:
