Audio selection gets stuck active when nesting a clip with multiple audio sources

If you select a clip / multiple and merge them into a nested clip in your timeline, the selection of the audio clip stays active. Since they aren't merged and replaced by the synced sequence audio track like what happens if you just have one audio track.

 

This is just a minor visual "glitch", but annoying nonetheless. The selection fixes itself when you select the clip and deselect it again but doesn't if you select another audio clip in the same audio track.

This was introduced with the timeline rework and worked as expected pre Premiere 25. This happens in both latest Premiere Pro (25.5.0 Build 13 in my case - I don't get 25.6.1 yet) and Beta. 

 

I attached a video which shows what happens.

Basically it is:

  1. Select a clip with at least 2 audio clips
  2. Nest them
  3. The audio sources are still selected, when they should be deselected in the timeline
