As of the latest update (2016.09 update 2 (22.9.2 BUILD 42)), this bug is still alive and kicking (and affects other ProChannel modules), per confirmation by user Msorrels who posted the following on another thread and came up with a workaround:
"2016.09 update 2 (22.9.2 BUILD 42) updating won't help. It is pretty easy to reproduce too. If I don't have the ProChannel panel showing in the Properties Inspector (select the Clip or Track tab or collapse the whole inspector) it doesn't seem to do it.
Seems to be a bug with several pro-channel modules though. Happens with both the PC4K S-Type and PC4K-Exp/Gate and it seems to happen with Panipulator, Bark Of Dog, and Concrete Limiter."
