I understand the lesson pretty well, but a question on pronunciation. Is the audio correct when it pronounces the sentence "J'attends plus de mes parents" with "plus" as [plu] instead of [plus]? It seems like this could be confusing in spoken French, in that it might be mistaken for "Je [n']attends plus de mes parents," but maybe the "de" makes it obvious that this is not a ne...plus construction where the "ne" is simply dropped/implied? (Maybe there's a lesson focusing on the pronunciation of "plus," but I've not seen it yet.)

'la maison de poupées' is NOT 'the doll's house'. It is 'the dolls house' or, more pedantically 'the dolls' house'

Past or present subjunctive

"Bien que Mateo sache déjà ce qu'il allait étudier à l'université," / "Although Mateo already knew what he was going to study at university,"

For this sentence I used the subjunctive past tense ""Bien que Mateo ait déjà su ce qu'il allait étudier à l'université," which is obviously not correct, but please can someone explain why? I assume it's because him knowing is not a single event in the past so the present subjunctive is the only alternative?
