drivers picked from winpe pass instead of offlineServicing pass during unattend installation

hi

I am doing an unattend installation and passed different driver locations in Windowspe pass and offlineServicing pass.

I went through the logs and it has processed the windowspe driver location in both the passes.

below is the snippet of answer file:

<settings pass="windowsPE">

         <component name="Microsoft-Windows-PnpCustomizationsWinPE" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
            <DriverPaths>
                   <PathAndCredentials wcm:action="add" wcm:keyValue="01">
                    <Path>z:\script\nbannoth\</Path>
                </PathAndCredentials>
            </DriverPaths>
        </component>

 <settings pass="offlineServicing">
        <component name="Microsoft-Windows-PnpCustomizationsNonWinPE" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
            <DriverPaths>
                   <PathAndCredentials wcm:action="add" wcm:keyValue="01">
                    <Path>z:\script\madhmeht\</Path>
                </PathAndCredentials>
            </DriverPaths>
        </component>
    </settings>

this is the part of logs:

here i believe it should have gone for z:\script\madhmeht

please let me know if  I am doing anything wrong.

My sole aim is to have drivers in offlineServicing, but somehow its not reading them.

Thanks in advance.
