Hi Jim, You are not alone. I have this strange behavior also, I have tried factory reset, including midi, all no good. It did it with 2013 and it does it with 2014 (380). If I record to a WAV file it doesn't include it.

All my songs have loop unchecked, and all have endings. Generally all of my songs are frozen, once I get the sound I like, but that doesn't even seem to matter.

It doesn't do it always when I play the song, but it does it with many different songs. Perhaps the first few times I play the song it doesn't do it, then once it starts it does it every time. Sometimes it does it from the very first play. It's not conclusive, but it seems to be able to always do it eventually.

It even does it if I press Play From (Control-F) and play from a position near the end - every time.

Interestingly, if I use BiaB to record the output to an audio file, it doesn't do it (it's not recorded in the Wave file).

It is coming from the Drums track, as it doesn't do it if I mute the Drums, and does it again as soon as I un-mute.

It sounds just like the song intends to start again, and plays the first beat of the count-in. The delay between end of the song and that beat is several seconds, and also, the highlighted bar jumps to somewhere else, rather than staying at the last played bar. Is that what you are witnessing?

Updates, Return to factory settings, reboots, restarts etc have not resolved.

I eventually created a video screen capture showing the phenomena and sent to PG Support. They have passed it on as a reported issue.

Here is the original thread

I recommend that you may wish to report also though. It would be beneficial for them to know that it may not be an isolated case.

Regards
Trevor
