When you select a sound, the parameter sliders (and switches) are temporarily overridden until you move or press them. If you don't hear the sound, that's because A-1 gave you a saws shape with the width set to zero, and you change that to a zero-width pulse. So that's normal.

If you turn on the pulse shape, and then move the width slider, the slider should capture control of the parameter. At the bottom, the pulse should go away; in the middle, you should hear a square wave; at the top, you may hear a thin smidge of a pulse, because I think it only goes to about 99%. If you hear anything else, then there's either a misreading of the sliders, or a miscalibration of the pulse width by the auto-tune.
