This sounds a bit like the issue discussed in this thread a
few weeks ago:
https://public-inbox.org/git/e8aedc6b-5b3e-cfb2-be9d-971bfd9adde8@talktalk.net/
But I didn't download or watch the video, so I'm not positive.
Full walkthrough (including comparison with 2.16.3) in the
video attached to this link:

Todd, it looks like that may very well be the same issue. And it looks like it's planning on being fixed in the next release? Would that be 2.17.1 since it's a regression?
