Latest member source changes not being retrieved

I wonder if anyone has experienced the following behaviour.
One of my colleagues has recently started using RDP 8.5. He discovered that he wasn't retrieving the latest changes people had applied using SEU.
I tested this myself on his PC and even though I was using Ctl Shift A it did not retrieve the latest change I had just made using SEU.
I even opened the member in RDP and then tried to open it at the same time in SEU. It gave me a member locked error. The same happened if I did the opposite.
Opened it in SEU for edit and then tried to open it in RDP. It gave me a member locked error.
However if I made a small change in SEU and then saved it. Then opened it in RDP, the change was not visible.

I then noticed that the connection he was using was a previous alias of the machine name. I changed the connection to use the current name and everything started to work OK.
When I pinged the alias name and the current name the return IP address and name were the same.
I can't explain what was causing the problem. It seemed to be keeping a local copy of the changes.
