Losing back end of audio after syncing in-points

I telecined some super 16mm to DVCAM, then captured that into FCP 5.1.4. However, when I go to sync up the audio by in points, the back 1/4 or so of the audio is not included in the merged clip.

When I open up the individual audio clip in the browser, it is complete and can play all the way through. But when I open up the merged clip, that last 1/4 is missing. The sync works fine, it doesn't get out of sync or anything similar. Just that the last 1/4 of the audio is gone. I did a forum search, but the only thing I found was an unanswered thread from 2005, so any help is extremely appreciated.

Things I've tried so far:

When I imported the video from dvcam, there was no audio, but the clip was labeled at having a sample rate of 48.0 (khz?, Mhz?). My audio was recorded at 44.1. So I exported all of my 44.1 clips as 48.0 .aif clips, then re-imported the new 48.0 clips. I get the same dropping problem with clips of both sample rates. The bit depth is the same (16).

Thanks for reading this, and any help is extremely appreciated.
 
anyone? This is buggin me in the worst way, because it doesnt seem like i'm doing anything wrong, so I'm running out of things to try troubleshooting.
