Mix STOPS mid way

What was done....
Manual mix (with levers) from Profile (on Prog bus) to Cam 2 (on Preset bus). When levers hit end stop, preset Cam 3 and manual mix to Cam 3.
What actually happened.....
Half way through the first mix, the mix freezes (leaving a half mix of profile and Cam2). The levers continue to endstop but nothing happens. When Cam 3 was preset, Kalypso CUTS to Cam 3. The next mix of the levers mixes back to the Profile.
What I think happened.......
Half way through the first mix, the panel lost comms with the frame or the network got very busy. Therefore the mix stopped half way. When the panel and frame started talking to each other again, Cam 3 had been selected on the Preset bus so the Kalypso IMMEDIATELY completed the mix transition to the source on preset which was now Cam3. Hence, it cut to Cam 3 and the busses flip floped putting the Profile on Preset. The next mix was therefore back to the Profile.
This all happened live to air at the head of our "Evening 7PM News".
This Kalypso operates in "Multi Suite Mode". When we showed the engineers what had happened they immediately asked if anything had been done in the other studio at the same time, possibly tying up the Kalypso network or frame. Needless to say, we can't reproduce the fault but we do have it on tape.
Has anyone had a similar experience?
