Audio Watermark Voodoo in Premiere

I'm at my wits end!  I created an animation in After Effects and used a licensed, un-watermarked track from Audio Jungle.  I imported this un-watermarked .mp4 into Premiere to used as an intro logo bumper.  Everything worked, clients loved it, huzzah... I just revisited the Premiere project for a minor change, and now the logo bumper plays with the "audio Jungle" watermark!  The source clip does not have the watermark when played.  I've done a "Replace Footage" in Premiere, but when it imports, the watermark shows back up!

So, I created a clean Premiere project, imported my animation (sans watermark), and previewed it in the source monitor...you guessed it!  The watermark is back. Is the latest Premiere picking up some encoding in the music track and somehow playing it?  Is that even a thing??  Anyone else have this issue?

Thanks,

Bill

    I would close Premiere Pro and manually delete the Media Cache and Media Cache Database. When done, open Premiere Pro and let the media conform again and see if it solved the problem.

      Thank you.That did it.  Totally weird that a rendered .mp4 would somehow end up with a watermarked version of the audio in it.  I wonder if it was referencing the approval copy of the .mp4, rather than the final version which had the same name?
