So I've noticed this this morning because our adsense has been disabled temporarily so for once there's a lot of available ad space on my site. What I've noticed is that if I go to my site and browse around, I get bids back from Rubicon/Magnite but no ad at all is filled. Obviously we'd expect if there was a bid that at minimum that ad should show up, and I'm worried this is affecting my fill rates on a larger scale. Some ads definitely do render - we're generating revenue so they must be - but I'm not sure why this would be happening.
Here is my setup using the recommended parallel setup for UAM and prebid:
var googletag = googletag || {};
googletag.cmd = googletag.cmd || [];
var gptAdSlots = [];
googletag.cmd.push(function() {
var top = googletag.sizeMapping().addSize([1000,0],[[728,90],]).addSize([768,0],[[728,90],[468,60],]).addSize([468,0],[[468,60],[320,100],[320,50],]).addSize([300,0],[[320,100],[320,50],]).
build();
gptAdSlots[0] = googletag.defineSlot("/pubid/parentadunit/adunit",[[728,90],[468,60],[320,100],[320,50]],"ADUNITLeaderboard").defineSizeMapping(top).
setTargeting("position", ["leaderboard-1"]).
setTargeting("tags", []).addService(googletag.pubads());
googletag.pubads().enableSingleRequest();
googletag.pubads().enableAsyncRendering();
googletag.pubads().enableVideoAds();
googletag.pubads().setCentering(true);
googletag.pubads().disableInitialLoad();
googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs();
googletag.enableServices();
});

I've tried going through all the documentation for answers but I've come up with nothing. There's no console errors when I run pbjs_debug on my site, the auction runs as normal but just never fires a 'bid won' for those bids where there's nothing else to fill the slot.
Not sure if I'm missing something painfully obvious here.
I'm using GAM as an adserver and all line items are set up as per the prebid documentation.
Is there some issue with my price config maybe? or is the UAM setup entirely wrong?
I did have gpt lazyloading set up on this before which I thought might be causing the issue, but I am still generating revenue even with lazyloading and removing it didn't seem to work.
Any ideas would be so helpful!
