Align zeros is not working

I have a bar/line chart combo and I would like the y axis aligned with the secondary axis. When I press "align zeros" as an option on the secondary axis, they are still no aligned. As you can see in the picture below, the secondary axis line is at a fixed value of 5.4, and the bar chart with a value of 5.8 is lower than the line instead of higher. Am I missing a step to align the axes?

Thanks for the reply from @ryan_mayu , please allow me to provide another insight:
Hi,@hstangelo 

1.First I have created the following table and the column names and data are the data you have given:

2.Based on my understanding of your requirements, you can make the following changes to the visual object:
First, turn off the “values” option:

Second, turn off the “zoom slider” option:

3.Here's my final result, which I hope meets your requirements.

thanks for your resposne, but that only toggles the zoom slider on and off for the secondary axis. It doesn't actually turn off the secondary axis.
