Framing - Top Plate Height - Pitched Ceiling Issue

What's the best way to get my wall framing in check for a pitched ceiling/truss heel?

 

The problem is it keeps pushing my top plate up above where the truss bearing should be.

 

I have verified: Room ceiling height correspondes with the top plate elevation I want. Ceiling plane starts at the correct elevation to plane out with the top plate if built into the truss. 

 

Here it is for the flat ceiling vs. pitched ceiling - why does the framing jump up like this?

Have also tried 'balloon through ceiling above' and 'stop at ceiling above'. No change with 'stop at ceiling abv' but here is 'balloon through' - it actually drops everything down but too low to be accurate.
