Acid WAV files don't always follow project pitch when they're imported. Once you import the file, select the clip, open the loop construction view, and enable follow key. Then, that clip will actually pay attention to your key markers. If it still doesn't, then, in loop construction view, manually set the key of the original loop, and it should now transpose correctly.
