Before and After issue

This is in Lightroom Classic 13.0.1 on Win11, shooting with a Sony A7 IV.

I've recently noticed some behaviour with Before and After that I can't figure out, if anyone can point me in the right direction.

 

Screenshot 1: I import a RAW image from SD card, apply no import changes to it. The Before and After are identical, we'll call them reddish/warm. In this scenario, the imported image has profile Camera ST


Screenshot 2: I import a RAW image from SD card, apply my baseline develop settings (which specifies profile Camera ST). The Before is a neutral/cool looking image, and the After is the same reddish/warm result as scenario 1.

Where is this Before image coming from? Even if I do a "Reset All Settings" on the image or do a Copy Before>After, there seems to be no way to get the After image to look like the Before version.

 

thanks

    There seems to be an issue with the preview...I might know what's happening but I need to verfy.

    Can you share the file + XMP in scenario 2 with the edits applied on import (compress them and attach them here).

     

    .

    Sure, here's a DNG from scenario 2. Imported only, nothing else done to it.

    Automatically write changes into XMP is enabled so everything should be in there (I checked with exiftool)

    strange.. I try to attach the DNG here and it tells me
    "The attachment's content type (image/DNG) does not match its file extension and has been removed."
