Maybe check R84 and particularly R85 are the correct values, and doesn't have any dry joints? I'm guessing that Q12 takes R84 in/out of circuit in order to set bias current on Q22, and if Q12 is open circuit to set optimised bias current, and there is a problem with R85, the post mixer amplifier won't work properly?
