Creating new vlan and interface broken

I haven't attempted to create a new interface in a few months, but at some point the process seems to be broken. I've been running opnsense for 3 years now and this is the first time I've had this issue. I create a new vlan, add the interface, configure a static IP and add a any/any firewall rule for the interface (just to make sure) and then I attempt to the ping the interface IP (which should be up) and results are intermittent.

When I ssh into the box check the interfaces, there are some inconsistences between different type of vlans, for example

Vlan 1270 which I've been running for ~3 years has this config and the new vlan 1236 has this minimal config.
Can anyone else duplicate this?
