I would check that WAV file.  See my comment below.

I wasn't paying any attention to this thread until now.
Yesterday and the day before I exported WAV files from ardour
2.8.11 and I noticed that a laugh that's balanced L/R at 6
seconds into the one track is also pulled forward to 2 seconds
into the track and panned nearly all the way left, but slides
toward center as it fades out.  The WAV file was exported via
"Export range markers to multiple audio files...".  The problem
exists in exports from each of the two days.  Only 2-3 of the
21 exported files have any trouble.

"Export session to audiofile..." doesn't exhibit the problem.

Cheerio....
