Nested veg weirdness

I am working with several nested projects on one timeline and I get the following audio problem with one of them and can't figure out what is going on:
It sounds like I someone is turning the volume down and back up again and the audio clip is moved down the timeline some....confusing I'm sure but if you'll listen to the clip you'll hear what I'm saying.
What it is supposed to do and what it does do in the original veg (opened in VP10 and VP11) is the strings should play and then fade out just before the sound of the car pulling up (I didn't want to include the video because it could be confusing since it's a J cut ).
However as you'll hear the audio goes down and back up on the strings and then abruptly ends during the car audio. If I render out it's fine.
The clips are at www.soundclick.com/GRB53 and the problem audio is "nested veg audio" and it's supposed to sound like "regular veg audio"
I'd very much appreciate your input.
Randy
Edit: it does something similar on another one in the same project...the problem audio on both go through a buss with Sonitus EQ but I wouldn't think that would matter.

I recorded the samples into Vegas Pro 10 and lined them up as closely as I could. I normalized and adjusted the amplitude -3db so they didn't distort and uploaded the picture of what I see.

Zoomed-in on the first chord

Full timeline

The attack of the first chord doesn't look that similar between the two recordings. Maybe it's my recording?

Have you looked for a volume envelope or fade out that doesn't go to zero in the area where the volume diminishes but then comes back?

I have no silver bullet.

P.S.
I'm creating my own storyboard in my head for the "Hillbilly Mouse Sitting in with the Big City Orchestra" and it's hilarious.

For some reason I get error 403 even when logged in when going to your links bud but it's likely that they don't start or end exactly the same since I just dragged the timeline to select in 2 separate vegs.

Yessir I did and I moved it (the strings clip) to another track that isn't bussed....but regardless, doesn't it seem I would hear the same thing in the original veg as the nested veg?

I have no silver bullet.

Thanks very much for your efforts my friend.

Changed the links to the public version.

"but regardless, doesn't it seem I would hear the same thing in the original veg as the nested veg?"

That's what it said in the manual.

Yeah I think what you're seeing is the nested veg started a few milliseconds before the regular veg (keep in mind I did the selections in different vegs).

That's what it said in the manual.
LOL....yes sir!
