Could it be the same problem as in the one in that link above?

Especially The first answer.
Here quote from that answer:
Quote
It has now become apparent that this problem was due to file system corruption and a bug in Electrum. The bug manifests when you create more than one wallet one after the other in a single session. Electrum mistakenly writes the addresses generated from the seed of your first wallet and the seed and xpub from your last wallet to the same wallet file. If you sent money to any of the addresses in the wallet the only way to recover access to those funds is by restoring from the seed of the older wallet you created.
