Thanks for the video. Very helpful.
I don't think an actual bug report was filed, but see this thread:
https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/subtitle-track-issue-subtitle-error/m-p/1395...
In the first few seconds of your video, you can see that the caption track that is enabled is the one that is active in the Text panel/caption tab, C1 or C2. But the "lit up" captions are actually in the other track, not the one they appear in.
The problem is that if you MOVE captions from one track to another, they behave correctly in the Text panel but not the timeline or Program Monitor. COPY them, don't move them. (See the workaround discussion in that thread.)
I think the easiest fix for you will be this:
1 Drag select all the lit up captions on C1.
2 Place the playhead at the beginning of the first caption. This way when you drag, you can make sure that you don't accidentally change the time.
3 Drag those captions to C2. Yes, in the future, you want to only Alt+drag so you don't get this problem. But we're correcting it!
4 They should still be selected, and you did not move the playhead.
5 So now Alt+Drag them to C1. They will copy to C2.
6 Select them in C1. Delete. They are now in C2 and showing when C2 is enabled.
7 Enable C1. If anything shows in the Text panel/captions tab, you need to determine what the problem is. From your screenshot, I think it should show as empty.
8 Enable C2. Are all the captions you want now showing in the Program Monitor? You can just delete that caption track.
