Volca Keys erase function bug?

Just wondering if anyone can confirm if this is expected behaviour, or if my Keys is acting up. To recreate the issue, you need to be in unison, octave or fifth, and with flux switched off. Examples:

  • I have an arppegiator sequence of 16 notes, flux switched off. If I hold FUNC+ERASE on the 8th note, it deletes both the 8th and the 9th.
  • Likewise, let's say I want to change one note in the sequence. I hit record, and play a note over the 7th note. The 7th note is now the new one I played, but the 8th has now been deleted.

So basically, any change I make, the note after that change is deleted. This also goes for changes to the 16th note - the 1st is then deleted. This makes changes impossible when not in poly

This doesn't happen in poly modes or with flux turned on. Do other people's Volca Keys behave this way? Is there some technicality here that I'm overlooking? Am I maybe just going about the task of changing a note the wrong way?
