Do you have this Input setting:
Volume By Price Study: Volume Graph Period Type

Set to Visible Bars? If you do, that would explain the problem. And that has no solution. If you do not, then we do not know the cause.

Assuming you are not using visible bars, one solution is just to only analyze the data for a chart bar, when it is closed by using this function:
ACSIL Interface Members - Functions: sc.GetBarHasClosedStatus()

This will definitely solve the consistency issue but why there is an inconsistency to begin with, we do not know.
