Problem with audio waveforms (bugging while zooming)

I recently updated to version 25.4.1 of Premiere Pro, and I’m having an issue with the audio waveforms. It’s a bug that existed in previous versions, but now it’s happening a lot. The problem is that the audio waveform doesn’t generate correctly—when I look at the timeline, it shows an (incorrect) waveform, and only when I zoom in on an audio track does the correct waveform appear. How can I fix this? It’s horrible not being able to properly visualize the real audio waveform.

Yeah, it wasn’t happening that much in 25.0, but I updated to 25.4.1 and I feel like it started happening a lot. I just updated to 25.5.0, hopefully it’ll be a bit better because that issue is really tedious.

Yeahhh this was an issue that plagued most of v23->v24, before it was mostly fixed in 25.0

But I also still ocassionally run into it, especially with bars and tone like shown in this video (v25.5). I also sometimes see it in nested audio. It's a shame it seems to be popping back up randomly
