It's been my experience that you sometimes have to start VS twice but reboot isn't needed. You also have to make sure the project template filters are cleared and be patient with VS to update everything. I don't think this is a WiX problem as I see it in my IsWiX also. It's just a visual studio thing.

We are also unable to reproduce this and believe it to be a VS or VSIX installer issue and not related to HeatWave.
