poly2mask not creating filled mask

I am trying to create a mask from the attached image (sampleEdges.png), which was obtaiend by applying the edge command to the sample image (sampleImage.jpg). I have obtained the coordinates of the area I want to mask using regionprops. The MaskBoundary looks like as shown in MaskBoundary.png. I now want to create a mask from the MaskBoundary coordinates using poly2mask, but it does not create a filled mask (mask.png)
sample = imread('sampleImage.jpg')
sampleEdges = edge(rgb2gray(sample),'canny',0.1,25);
regions = regionprops(sampleEdges, 'all');
[~,index] = sortrows([regions.Area].'); % Sort by descending area
regions = regions(index(end:-1:1));
MaskBoundary = bwtraceboundary(sampleEdges,[regions(2).PixelList(1,2) regions(2).PixelList(1,1)],'n');
MaskX = MaskBoundary(:,2);
MaskY = MaskBoundary(:,1);
Mask = poly2mask(MaskX,MaskY,size(sample,1),size(sample,2))
The two regions are the ones that enclose the red markings in ROI.png. But regionprops can only find the right one.

Use bwboundaries() instead of bwtraceboundary().

How do you identify the one you want? A week or two ago I gave you code to identify the curved bar. Why did you discard that approach?
