Greetings all:
I have encountered this problem twice. First, the parts were heated by
sunlight. Were you using heat lamps?
Second, mahogany and some rosewood  contain oils occurring naturally in the
wood. This caused trouble for me once. After trying EVERYTHING I applied a
thin coat of shellac. Problem solved.
Now, as a matter of course, I apply a shellac sealer coat on top of past
filler.
