Ah hah! I solved it.

I forgot that if the sum of the image layers has even a tiny part of transparency in it, it will use that for transparency information instead of the alpha channel. In this case, due to the resizing, the background layer must have had a slightly transparent pixel somewhere on the edge. Refilling the entire bg layer properly did it. 🙂

Here’s an example .psd file with the issue — https://we.tl/SOsNqsc7XW — it doesn’t display transparency when opened in external software (Preview for example) but in Photoshop the Alpha channel appears to all be setup correctly. Can anyone confirm to me, or tell me what I did wrong?

Thanks for the reply Jeff. Grouping them into a folder and then removing them from the folder works but I thought there might be a simpler solution. I always assumed linked layers sorta locked them together positionally.
