Never encountered this exact problem, but in my experience, blowing
through events has been caused by using Segue transitions.  That can be
mitigated by using a pause after the command--in my case 2 to 3 seconds
of pause does it.  If you have 10 seconds of silence you should have
plenty to play with.  Try a pause after the stop command.

  Loading the day-after log has been caused by timed log chain events in
our case.  Microseconds can count here with race conditions.  If a log
loads fast enough, it can hit the next day's hard-timed log chain before
it plays the first event.  But I am assuming your 23:59:10 event is
hard-timed, so why it would start that in the morning--even if it blew
through the 10AM stop event--seems weird.  But even if things went well
and 23:59:10 came on time, if the following log chain loads fast enough,
it could see the next day's timed 23:59:10 before it plays the proper
day's first event--essentially making the log chain a timed event, too.

  In our case, that stopped happening now that we use 2 logs--one for
music and another in Aux 1 for stopsets.  The stopset log chain happens
in sequence (not timed) after the last stopset program event--which
stopset is a make-next at 57 past the hour.  TOH ID is the first event
in the new day's Aux 1 log.  Music log rolls over in a sequenced (not
timed) event whenever that log runs out--although we do put in a timed
make-next cue event at 11:30 at the point where about 30 minutes of
music remains, so it rolls over somewhere close to midnight.

  Hope that info is useful.
