Default sorting problems - error message: identically sized merged cells.

i get the error message "this operation requires merged cells to be
identically sized"
i have checked several times and the merged cells are the same size. i have
tried re-merging and un-merging and nothing seems to work. any ideas?

Un-merge; don't re-merge. Merged cells cause countless problems, of which
