Linking of audio and video behaves strange

Within my project I have a large number of video clips that have strange linking behavior (but not all).
- Inserting an image before such a video moves only the video ahead, but not the audio, when clicking insert-and-move-all clips (see attached image)
- video editing behavior is disabled, and only enables when I unlink the audio (see attached image)

Note that the UI also shows that the video and audio seem like disconnected (but are not unlinked). You can see the difference in one of the attached screenshots. I have no idea what this means and how I can revert it so I can edit my video clips properly again.

A lot of videos are affected in my project.

Did you check and see that the audio track is unlocked? I tried to duplicate what you described and it only does it when the audio track is locked, regardless of whether the video and audio are linked/unlinked. Mike B.

Thanks for your reply, however the audio track is not locked. In addition, if I do what you describe, the video clip is still editable (options like fix/enhance are still available), which is not the case in my video project.

Still it might be a good place to start for a solution. After I delete the clip again in your example audio and video are glued together again, unfortunately this does not happen in my video project as the video and audio clips seem to be in sync.
