This is weird indeed. Never occurred to me before.
Glad you were able to resolve it!

The pType did not help. BUT I figured it out.
I had MRay set to render only Front faces. For some reason, at some
frames
the particles must have been facing the wrong way (all of them...)
Because
when I set mRay to render Both it worked.
Is this to be expected? This seems like a bug to me...
Thanks,
