hours of discomfort are de same for the entire building as well for each zone

Hopefully someone can answer my question. In design Builder, when running a simulation to show hours of discomfort, the result for the different zones is the same as the average for the building, even though the air temperature and relative humidity vary from zone to zone. Have I made any wrong settings for this to happen? I would greatly appreciate your suggestions.

The average temperature, humidity and hours of discomfort at the building level is 26.6 ºC, 76.3% and 60 hours of discomfort (all clothes) respectively. For the bedroom to the north, these values ​​are: 28.3 ºC, 68.2% and 60 hours of discomfort (all clothes). For other zones, the constant in all zones is 60 hours discomfortimage description. image description
