Music Video Editing: Audio/Video Sychronize issues

I am editing a performance-based music video. I have about 12 difference shots of the band playing to the master audio track. All week long, every shot sync-ed up perfectly when I would used the "Synchronize" feature. Now all of the sudden, a handful of my clips (of the drummer in particular!) are not syncing. I am getting this error message that a match could not be found.

I've done everything from me-importing the original footage, trying different channels to sync to "Audio 1, Mixdown, etc), to restarting Premiere, to even recutting the raw footage I shot of the drummer, yet nothing works. This happened all of the sudden, as all my shots were seamlessly syncing all week long. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I would just sync manually, drums are fairly easy to do.

If that doesn't work, try resetting the Workspaces:
Reset a workspace
Reset the current workspace to return to its original, saved layout of panels.
1. Do one of the following:
• Click the Workspace menu icon and select Reset to Saved Layout.
• Choose Window > Workspace > Reset to Saved Layout.

If that doesn't work, try Preferences > Audio Hardware and set Input to None.

If that doesn’t work, try updating or rolling back your graphics driver directly from the video card manufacturer’s site. If NVIDIA, do a clean install of the latest Studio Driver (NOT the Game Driver)

If that doesn't work, try creating a new project and import the old one into it.

Vfr is known to give issues.

If the footage is variable framerate convert to constant framerate with Handbrake or Shutter Encoder before bringing into Premiere.
