Why are my folder variables not populating in columns?

On the creation of a new project/machine using a template the variables are not populating in the vault explorer columns. Why is this?

They are shown in "View Values". "Edit Values" is empty. But it I manually copy the values into "Edit Values" and save the columns populate.

That somewhat defeats the purpose of using a template... Any advice?
