Well it's interesting that happened to you because if you check on the recipe page in the comments section, you're not the only one that has happened to.
The thing is, Gouda does melt. Only not always as fast as you want it to or how you want it to. I've used it and it melts. Some other people in the comments have mentioned that different brands melt better. They also suggest substituting the smoked Gouda for smoked Cheddar.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
