Can't seem to get true circular motion on gcode despite smoothing

Hi Everyone,

First, I'm still new to fusion 360 and cnc milling so I suspect this is really user error.

I'm trying to produce gcode for my cnc mill and for any circular shape the code ends up generate very small linear lines instead of a true circle.

I've read through dozens of forums where adding smoothing seems to do the trick but in my case it doesn't work. Both the preview and the actual machining end up with straight lines regardless of the values I put for smoothing and tolerance.
What am I doing wrong?

 

I've uploaded my file, hopefully in the right format.

 

Thanks so much!
