Unable to link proxies because audio channels need to match source file

Question

Up until today my workflow was as follows:

Download source footage from overseas videographer on Frame.io AND download a “proxy lowest” vesrion of the same files;
Import Full res into Premiere;
Link proxiesusing the Frame.io low res versions.

Today I got an error message saying proxy media and full resolution media must have matching audio channels. Preventing me from linking the two.

These proxies have no audio and the full res files have 4 separate audio channels. But until today it wasn’t an issue. I edit on a windows laptop and it takes forever for me to encode proxies from 4K LOG 10bit footage so this was an absolute life saver…

Any luck from someone that is using a smilar workflow and might know a fix?

If you’ve been able to attach proxieswithoutidentical audio, you’ve done something I’ve never been able to do! Many of us have been pushing for years to have an “override audio” option on linking to proxies.
