OneDrive moves Pictures & Music intermittently to Documents Folder

Hello all, I am an Office 365 subscriber who has recently moved back to using OneDrive on my desktop PC running the latest Insider version of Windows 10 on the Fast channel. In attempting to synchronize mp3s with Groove and JPGs with Photos, I find that the Pictures and Music files seem to get moved to the Documents folder where they are renamed ‘My Music’ and ‘My Pictures’ even though these changes only last a couple of seconds and the folder get moved back to their original location at the OneDrive root. This occurs pretty regularly and without any changes to the desktop PC file structure upon which OneDrive should be synchronizing. Not sure where OnoDrive is getting the impetus to move files back and forth constantly renaming folders, If anyone has any ideas, I would really appreciate it, thank you in advance.
