Opacity Value/Key frames in timeline view seem to be ignored

We're trying to upgrade from version 2.25 to 3.34, and have noticed that the Opacity channel in the timeline window seem to be being ignored which is breaking a number of our particle systems. Is this a known issue and is there a workaround/fix?

thanks
Andrew McDonald

I will fix this problem, if I see it.

Please, give me the emitters, which have this problem.

best regards,
Alexey Sedov

Thanks. I've linked a .ptc exhibiting the problem.

I've also attached some videos showing the behavior in the editor using version 2.25 and 3.34.
Note that in 3.34 then opacity value is still interpolating on the timeline, but the actual image doesn't change its opacity.

I forgot to mention. I'm using Magic Particles (Dev) in case that makes a difference.
