To the original poster: Are you sure there is only one split... if you go to the Imbalance account, select one of the entries, and press Show Splits, you get nothing?
To others: I have accidentally created Imbalance entries when because of hitting the wrong key, an Imbalance entry is created. I then catch it, fix the error and zero the Imbalance amount, but forget to delete it from the split.
