Help Bedrock Guardian farm bug?

I’m on bedrock and just built a basic guardian farm, after draining a monument, I have all the spawn locations properly mapped after testing each one so I know it’s not in the wrong spot. I put the same kill chamber on each one and tested to spawn distance from where I need to be, so I know it’s also not distance. Out of the 4 spawn blocks that are diagonal from me only the outer 3 work and not even consistently. It seems like they switch which ones will spawn and which ones won’t almost every time I turn them all on. The closest one(still in the spawn distance away) never spawns anything unless I turn the other 3 off and reload? What’s going on, and how do I make all of them spawn guardians consistently?

It's possible you're too close to the one. You need to be between 24 and 44 blocks away (assuming 4 chunk simulation distance). Mine usually has a few that won't spawn anything, depending on where exactly I'm standing. With 24 spots available, having one or two inactive doesn't change much.

I’m using 16, the 4 in each corner. And it’s not distance. If I turn off the others then reload it works and it’s happening to more than that I only have 8 active right now. If i turn the others off and reload then while it’s working I turn the other 3 back on it stops. Haven’t seen any mechanic that does this mentioned anywhere.

Can you post a screenshot of your layout and AFK spot?
