Ray Tracing Shadow not showing on terrain

Unity Engine

Hi, as the title says every time I turn on ray traced shadow on my directional light, the terrain shadow disappears.

I was using Unity 2020 but got the 2022.1 version today, and it’s still the same.

Screen Space Shadow: ON - Ray Traced: OFF:

Ray Traced Shadow: ON: (Long shadow disappears)

On the other hand, if I place an object on the terrain with ray traced shadow ON, the object has a shadow on the terrain!

afaik terrain doesn’t support raytracing at the moment.
