I believe I have this problem as well. It seems to affect my legacy V8 projects. For awhile I thought it could be do to a missing vst plugin but I think I found all of those and registered them. I don't know what it could be now. I hope someone else figures this out soon.

Send a ticket to SCS Support--let them know and see what you find out.

I haven't had this problem as I've not tried your scenario. What you could try is to open all the child projects in V9 and save them as V9 projects.
Needless to say first make backups of your original V8 projects.

Wasn't smart enough to backup all of my V8 projects. But I do have all of the sub-projects as V9 files.

I have one very short sub-project (under 10 minutes) that doesn't have any effects or audio plugins and it works correctly. My other projects have multicam, audio plugins and video effects applied and are 2+hours. I'm guessing it is either the length or the plugins and I'm trying to test and figure out what it is.

Ticket in to SCS but I'm betting they won't be able to help. I put in a ticket about sub-projects with type-1 DV files not working in a nested context last year and that bug is still in Vegas 9.

I tried every trick I could think of an one worked.

Close all open projects and then for each sub project file like "mysub.veg":
->Rename mysub.veg to mysub.old.veg
->Delete the files mysub.sfap0 and mysub.bak
->Open mysub.old.veg in VP9 and use the File|Save As function to save it as mysub.veg
->Reopen your parent project and let the nested audio re-render

I'm not sure which step is the fix but I know I tried deleting the sfap0 files
and that did not help. It might be the Save As step that does it.

The only answer I have found is to close the master project and then delete the .sfap0 and the .sfk files, then reopen the master project. Repeat until successful.

I also have the problem of when I open V9 64, it often can't find the files for a project. If I close and reopen Vegas it finds them.

That was not as annoying as the problem with project files corrupting and not wanting to render. I solved that by reducing the number of render threads to 2 on my Turion X2.

This has been a challenging release.
