Can't figure this one out! CS4

I'm trying to understand why, in the Flash project above, I get an odd discrepancy between the project as it appears on the Stage, and the version that exports as a SWF.
Here's a description of the problem, though you might find it easier to simply look at the problem, in the blue bunny's legs, for yourself.
I'm animating two characters originally drawn on paper by my daughters, age 4 and 3. The blue bunny character's legs are graphic symbols ("L/R leg squeeze") with a motion tween applied to them, an x-scale transformation, occurring only once per 30-frame bounce cycle.
However, up a level or two at the "lyda armature bounce" symbol, the same transformation unexpectedly occurs three times over the same 30 frames -- seemingly tied to the "pose" keyframes. You can't see this mysterious effect except in the blue bounding box that you get when you select a leg.
If anyone could explain this problem, I'd be grateful. Maybe something to do with my IK armature and the fact that within it, I have moved its component graphic symbols (all of them except the legs) to match the embedded leg-squish animation?
