Why is the audio only messed up in Vegas? Video Cut with Machete 4.5

This little program is Ingenius, Machete lets me cut out from my large video files the small good moments I want to save and edit then post to Youtube later on, it lets me save hard drive space and I don't have to scrub through massive video files while editing, it lets me save and have only the parts I need and want.
It's one of the only Programs that cuts with the Audio tracks intact and separated, the process is also easy to do once you learn the basics.
The one and only problem is, Vegas Pro 15 will have the audio tracks cut off Early, as if they stopped recording part way through. But if I open the file in Adobe Premier the audio tracks show all the way through and if I play the files in a video player there they are.
The weirdest thing too is that Machete lets me cut the audio out Separately, the entire track but that's a tedious process for someone recording in 3 Separate Tracks. They will play on their own normally, but then as soon as they're added into Vegas they're at the appropriate lengths as they should of been with the video files, but now there are audio artifacts like looping audio, scattered audio, something near the end plays towards the start randomly and overlapping audio from the Same Track.

To be Honest it doesn't play that audio track perfectly in Adobe Premier either, it won't have all the artifacting but the Audio isn't spaced out as it should be, there's no spaces after something has been said before the audio skips ahead. But if I drag the video file in with all the audio tracks attached to it the audio will play and show Normally.

This is a pain in the ass because I found this out when I wanted to start editing a video together after cutting out a batch of small videos from larger ones before deleting the larger files. Now I'm stuck with these files I can't edit because I'll lose audio Unless I go through some tedious methods to cut the audio out separately somehow.

If anyone could look into the Machete Program and Vegas Pro to find the answer of why Vegas cuts the audio early or how to make it not cut the audio early that'd be fantastic.

Posting before and after file media info may yield a clue, as would one of the files that stops prematurely in VP.

Dropboxing an Original file and a Smaller Cut File, will be up in 3-ish hours, cause the original file is Very long.

Scratch that, I will upload it tonight, I don't have a lot of bandwidth and there's stuff I need to do.

Media info is important for diagnosis... quick & easy. Instructions if you not familiar with it.

There's all the Info Requested Except for the Vegas File Properties, I'll get that in a bit as my talking friends are waiting on me.

Edit: Also I'm using OBS recording in MP4 Format with 4 Audio Tracks. The 4th is the Previous 3 Combined for quick checking of Audio.
