Now, I know I can export to PNG sequence, but exporting to video with masks has never been a problem for me before this update and it should work. See video.

    Workarounds are great but we need better than workarounds.

    Found the work-around:
    My mask was comprised of symbols. I needed to break them apart until vector shapes and fill them as a complete unified shape.
    Recap: Avoid masks made up of various symbols. Flatten them into vectors.

    😉 To use masks with symbols, it is better to use the option of blending modes with alpha for mask or erase for inverse.
