Hello, I've found a problem in Maya 2014 with the Octane Light where if it is a sphere it doesn't work correctly. It works correctly in Maya 2013. And it works fine as a plane but it doesn't emit light as sphere.

Here is a picture of the problem:

See if the situation improves if you turn on alpha shadows on the render globals and set the light opacity to 0. Boost it's power just to make sure.
