Hi Nic,
I'm running Matrix v4.10.6, and extracted the EES version1858 into the var/www/matrix/data/public/ees folder, however I think this directory is not actually being used, since my Matrix build (following your tutorial) has all the EES files under home/websites/squiz_matrix/data/public/ees
When I create a normal design file without EES markup it works fine, but with EES markup I can only preview image. However when you click edit contents you can see everything.
This is taken from the most recent Matrix system log from the administration log asset.
