It is worth noting that an 8 year old chinese speaker (my chinese girlfriend's son) was sat next to me at the time, and he also thought the sound sample said xie4 xie, so yes it would definitely be worth re-recording to avoid further confusion.
Really enjoying the course and appreciate your quick reply.
