Hello. I wasn't able to reproduce this issue after trying different things. And I'm not sure what could cause that.
Have you tried reloading the scene or restarting Maya?
Maybe you can use ATOM to transfer the animation to a new reference. |

| Hi. This is a bug with Maya 2015 when using older rigs. (We publish Malcolm in an older format for maximum compatibility for our many users.) Looks like you need to install the latest SP And possibly rewind to a slightly older file of yours. https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/maya/troubleshootin... |

In the Reference Editor, select the reference and then use the menu to "Import Objects from Reference" or something like that.
That will break the link between the reference file and sometimes may help problems like this. |

It could be rotation values. There is something in that area.
Compare it in another maya to a fresh rig and look all around those controls, the joints, the parents.
If not, you can use ATOM to transfer to a new reference. |
