I do have both Merge Modules and Install projects. I have not tried your approach yet. I had tried unloading all wix projects at once but that did not help. Unloading is much easier than recreating the solution file from scratch. I'll give it a try and respond back with my results. I have to get a copy of the source that is "infected" first.
