Unexpected new layers if using DS components in the other file

When I connect components from my design system to other working files, some unexpected layers appear inside the component once it’s placed in the file. These layers do not exist in the original library in this components.. What’s even stranger is that these layers come from completely unrelated components that share no structure and were created independently.

 

For example, one of my components contains an icon and a line of text wrapped in a single wrapper. But after placing this component into another file, the wrapper suddenly becomes wrapped inside an additional wrapper — a wrapper that does not exist in the parent component. This breaks the layout, because that unexpected wrapper inherits layout settings from a totally different component.

 

If I edit or use the same component inside the main design system file, everything works fine — the issue appears only after inserting the component into another file.

Has anyone experienced anything like this?

 

It feels like this started happening after one of the recent updates…
