Problem with playhead stopping

Hi,
I had a problem with the playhead stopping while working on a project (which is completely composed of midi loops). After turning off various tracks and changing or moving loops around, etc., I found that 2 loops (2 measures long each) from 2 different instrument tracks (double bass and bassoon) starting at the same time, caused the playhead to stop one measure before the measure where they lined up. I don't know why this caused a problem as I solved it by just extending the culprit double bass loop to 3 measures long so it didn't start at the same time as the 2-measure bassoon loop. Hope this made sense. Just thought I'd share this.

But I found that when I closed the track and reopened it or relaunched GB and the file, the problem returned. By muting the track, things seem to work fine. Only when I turn the track on does it stall the playhead right at about measure 135. Converting a small section that contains measure 135 converts to an aiff fine. Something is wrong with the track and I'm not sure if it is the software instrument or something in the GB file.
