A little more digging and a call to Avid Support to which they were stumped and still haven't gotten back to us after sending a session over, etc....(sigh)... This issue definitely has something to do with region groups as others have noted in previous posts from as far back as 2009 AD. Found some of our 2 pops were part of some region group elsewhere and causing the link to bad fades...I guess. Cleared the region group and it went away, for now. Even though we checked earlier for any existing region groups in the bin and thought they were cleared. Either way, this should probably be addressed by Avid after at least 5 years of people dealing with it, rather than having to search around a session for missing fades and manually remove them from a session that was working fine the night before. Or maybe bring back the "regenerate fades" option that has disappeared from PT11.
