Mac OS 12.6.2 PPro 23.1.0

- adaptive audio clips (4 mono, 1 clip) in a multichannel timeline (6 channels).

- channels disappearing while working

Support Material:

This clip has 4 audio channels. Only 2 are displaying in timeline, and only 2 can be heard.

Matchframe back to original clip in source monitor shows 4 channels:

(no waveform on 3 & 4 - that's a typical issue - but sound is recorded and 4 channels playback in source monitor)

... So this 4 channel clip can be dragged back to the timeline under the original:

The new 4 channel clip shows up under the original. (same clip, same media).

This is what these 2 clips look like this in the effects control panel:

 

(just a reminder, this is a 4 channel clip in a 6 channel timeline).

This is what these 2 clips look like in the clip mixer:

The problem is that the 2nd clip (the one I just dragged in fresh with 4 channels) will at some random point in the future start to appear and act as the 1st clip. This continues to happen in all my timelines.

No response or acknowledgement from Adobe on this.

I am adding a screen cap of what the "Clip > Modify Audio" dialog pane looks like on these clips where channels are disappearing. Top is the problematic clips, bottom is what this dialog normally looks like. (Neither can be changed as these are clip instances in a sequence, nonetheless you have access to this dialog.)

Additional info:

It appears the clips in question have been converted to stereo clips by Premiere somehow. I say this because I can copy the audio clip from the timeline and paste it into a stereo track. (Normally, a multi-channel adaptive sound clip with 4 channels would not paste or otherwise be cut into a stereo track).
