Multicam in CS5

I have a multicam sequence that I've nested into a new sequence. For some strange reason (and it has only happened in this sequence, none of my other multicam sequences), the audio doesn't come out at the beginning of the sequence. When it gets to the start of another clip, though, audio suddenly comes back. Currently I've thrown the original audio files into the multicam sequence, but does anyone know what's going on?

Thanks.
 
Yeah, Premiere can do unexpected things when it comes to multicam clips and audio. I've stopped expexting it to work and on the timeline where I make my cuts I just unlink the audio track before I start, delete the audio track and drop another instance of the audio below it. So it's the same as unlinking them but Multicam is not enabled on the audio track.

I'm sure what Premiere does with multicam audio is logical but I don't always understand why certain things work the way they seem to...
 
Yeah, it's just MOST confusing that it's worked fine in the 3-4 other sequences within that project and then here it didn't. But in the end this worked out better for finding the audio that I wanted to use for the scene.
 
Take note that a multicam sequence only passes audio from A1. So while you can hear all the audio from all tracks in the original, if A1 doesn't start at the beginning, you'll get silence at the beginning of the multicam.
