I do see problems with the figures when I use the menu Insert -> File on a blank document to insert AOO41GS2.odt. Instead of a problem with one figure, I saw problems with figures 2,4,11,12, and 17. The document showed a placedholder rather than the actual figure. I could delete the placeholder and copy and paste the figures from the chapter file in most of the cases. For figures 12 and 17, I had to delete the frame intended to hold the figure, delete the placeholder (which was somehow not in the frame), insert a new frame, and then copy over the figure from the chapter file. If you turn on View -> Nonprinting Characters, you can see that figures 12 and 17 are unusual. The figure caption is preceded by several empty paragraphs. I bet I did something wrong when I inserted those figures long ago. I inserted AOO41GS3.odt without any problems.
