By the way you can just tell the printer that there is pva on the second extruder but tell cura that you loaded pva and you can slice and print just fine through that BB core that thinks it's an AA core. I would doulbe check the nozzle though - if you remove the rubber ring around the nozzle and look with a loupe or reading glasses you should see a tiny "AA 0.4" or "BB 0.4" on the nozzle itself. The only difference mechanically between the 2 is the nozzle. The other differences is that the eeprom is programmed as either AA or BB and the white marking of course.

Almost certainly the machine is fine but the core is programmed wrong. I'd send just the BB core back to where you bought it.
