In my experience, it's random. For example, earlier this year, I did a standalone MEL-SYD-MEL on VA, and the first segment posted but the second didn't. Both segments were in the same fare class. But when I tried to claim the missing segment, AC told me falsely that it was in a non-earning fare class. So if there is a communication problem between VA and AC, maybe it's at that point.
