ava_after_main_container hook no longer works

I have the following code in my functions.php file to add a widget area below the secondary menu and it has worked beautifully for a while now. Out of the blue (today), I see that the widget area is no longer there on the front end of the site. I never changed anything on the site.

I checked Appearance>Widgets within the admin and the widget area “Below Menu” exists along with a basic text widget, but nothing displays on the site. I ran a search for “orange_bar” (custom class for my widget –see below) within the source of the site and nothing is found. It’s like the ‘ava_after_main_container’ hook no longer works.

Does anyone know what went wrong and how do I fix it?

/* Add widget area below main menu */
add_action( 'ava_after_main_container', 'enfold_customization_below_menu_widget_area' );
function enfold_customization_below_menu_widget_area() {
	dynamic_sidebar( 'Below Menu' );
}
if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') )
  register_sidebar(array(
    'name' => 'Below Menu',
    'before_widget' => '<div class = "widget clearfix widget_text orange_bar"><div class="container">',
    'after_widget' => '</div></div><div class="container"><div class="arrow-down"></div></div>',
    'before_title' => '<h3>',
    'after_title' => '</h3>',
  )
);
