When you load that .sf2 file, you aren't just stealing a drum loop. You are inheriting a 50-year-old ghost—the crash of a 1969 cymbal, the hiss of analog tape, and the roar of a London pirate radio station—all under your fingertips.
In the pantheon of digital audio history, few six-second drum loops have sparked a cultural revolution quite like the Amen Break . Originally the B-side of a flop 1969 single, the thunderous fill from The Winstons’ “Amen, Brother” has become the DNA of drum and bass, jungle, hip-hop, and breakcore.
Note: While the cultural use of the Amen Break is ubiquitous, The Winstons (specifically saxophonist Richard L. Spencer) legally hold the copyright. Consider supporting sample-free music or using royalty-free "sound-alike" breaks for commercial releases.

This could have to do with the pathing policy as well. The default SATP rule is likely going to be using MRU (most recently used) pathing policy for new devices, which only uses one of the available paths. Ideally they would be using Round Robin, which has an IOPs limit setting. That setting is 1000 by default I believe (would need to double check that), meaning that it sends 1000 IOPs down path 1, then 1000 IOPs down path 2, etc. That’s why the pathing policy could be at play.
To your question, having one path down is causing this logging to occur. Yes, it’s total possible if that path that went down is using MRU or RR with an IOPs limit of 1000, that when it goes down you’ll hit that 16 second HB timeout before nmp switches over to the next path.
