XCLIP not working on shaded Visual Style (all others are ok)

Hey folks, I have a sample attached where any visual style will respect the XCLIP boundary, but not under Shaded (Fast or With Edges). Please let me know if you can think of what we are missing, as I could not come across any similar threads or articles specific to this.

 

Notes:

- Issue tested in multiple PCs.

- This is originally an AutoCAD Map3D drawing, enabled for SDS P4A (sorry it gets a bit large in size due to the database inside it). It can be opened and tested with regular AutoCAD though (versions used are 2024).

- What you are looking at is a mockup exercise file for an electric substation layout, and the XCLIP is meant to cut out and reveal the internal components of a control enclosure.

- Yes, the clipping boundary is located far away because of elevation (way below the physical layout), which I'm not sure if it affects the outcome (according to this other post https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-forum/when-making-xclip-in-model-space-some-linework-disappea...).

Thanks so much for taking the time to help.

This seems to be a problem introduced by Fast Shaded Mode.
