Can you please capture a subsequent Sync in a debug log (step 4b) and attach the log to a Support Ticket:

This will help a developer analyze why this happens on your setup.

I think it is solved. I had the mask set to basically "\.\artist-album\song" type format. I'm not sure why I removed the Music folder. Maybe I was worried about hitting certain limits. There is a limit of 2000 folders, and 8000 files according to the manual. Once I changed the format back to match the master database (\music\artist\album\song) it worked. I also found out there is a setting to force mask matching, and that may have been the root cause of the problem originally.
I just checked, and this drive has 1838 folders and 7958 files!
