Those are the wrong settings. I agree it's a bit confusing, but click on
the hamburger menu (≡) for the export, then choose preferences. On the
left you will see a set of checkboxes, including metadata. Make sure the
metadata one is selected (see attached).  If that doesn't help, try
deselecting "develop history". There was an old bug (which is supposed
to be fixed) that caused metadata export to fail if the develop history
stack got too big.
