It all cleared within an hour automatically along with several others who hadn't yet checked in but strange she was higher.
Can you check who kept the original PNR code?
There are several reports of this happening in

Consensus view is that it's not supposed to be that way, but sometimes the 'gremlins' get a hold of things.
I'm not sure if it's more common to have companion/split PNRs sort correctly or incorrectly now.
