OK, I tried Mixdown on the audio tracks in the sequence, but that didn’t solve the problem. By (a lot of) random experimentation, I did, however, find a fix for this problem. For each clip that was missing sound, I did this:

1) I unselected “Make Stereo Pair” for the clip, creating a two seperate mono tracks– a1 and a2.
2) I deleted a2.
3) With only a1 remaining, I did a mixdown via Render Only>Mixdown
4) I copied track a1 in the clip, and pasted it into a2
5) I selected both a1 and a2, and toggled “Make Stereo Pair”.

For whatever reason, this worked. The audio on these clips can now be heard when I play them on my camcorder via firewire.

Now, I’m not sure what combination of these things actually made the audio on these clips play again via firewire. After step #3, I could hear the audio again via firewire and my camcorder. I _also_ – I don’t know if this mattered – muted track a2 before I deleted it. I’m not sure if the mixdown step did anything at all!

This was a devilish problem to troubleshoot, and I hope this info is useful to others who run into it. Please feel free to follow up here if you have questions.

Thank you for the suggestion! I’ll try that right away.
