I think this one I just didn't seat right. User error. I've been riding them for years and it's the only time it's ever happened. I've been told to use clips with no "ears" on them or at minimum only one. I think I got lazy on this one because that was all I had. The two-eared ones are too easy to bend and deform so they don't seat right. Also, the opening on the clip faces towards the bike, not away.
