Hochschild cohomology of an Azumaya algebra

Let $k$ be a field. Given a commutative $k$-algebra $Z$ and an associative algebra $A$ that is Azumaya over $Z$, do we have an isomorphism of Hochschild cohomologies: $HH^*(A) \cong HH^*(Z)$?

This is true in characteristic zero by Weibel and Cortiñas, but their proof doesn’t generalise to prime characteristic. Is there a characteristic-independent proof, or is there a counter example in positive characteristic?
