Multicam Sequence (View only) Bug - Unable to Edit Source Text

I'm running into a strange issue on Premiere 25.0.0 where a synced multicam clip is displaying as (View only) in the timeline and (Read-Only) in the source window, even though it is up to date in the project panel. I'm trying to correct the transcription in the source but changes don't get saved.

I can confirm that the multicam clip is being used in a sequence as described in the below related post. As a user suggested, I restarted my 2021 M1 Max Macbook Pro and that seemed to temporarily remove the view/read only bug, but any changes to the source transcription still would not save and update in the program.
