X-REF file in paperspace has field that is not corresponding.

I have created a file that has a field that links to the tab name in paperspace. I then X-REF the file onto another file and then created several tabs and copied the X REF onto each tab. The XREF only displays the tab that I opened the drawing in. This works on other drawings that I have, but I created this one with many more tabs than normal and now it does not work. I already tried recreating the file when this happened before and I thought I had it fixed but it is back. Why does this happen? How can I fix / avoid this in the future?

Displays A4.0 on tab A5.1

This appears to be a bug, I ran a test and got similar results, but when I plotted, the PDF was correct. Can you confirm similar results when plotting?

Yeah I just tried plotting it and it displayed properly, that's pretty weird
