As far as happening in a mix, is does it happen at the same place? This kind of thing can happen when note offs or sustain pedal offs get chopped off in an edit or overdub. During normal playback and stopping of a midi track that doesn't have any of those missing Reaper should send note offs, at least. In fact, there is a preference for turning that off (In VST settings with "Don't send note offs or pitch reset messages on stop/reset") and it should be unchecked, or sending note offs, as default.
One things that doesn't solve the problem, but it might fix the symptom, would be to insert the midi action "Send all notes off" where necessary, as a way to get through a mix while troubleshooting exactly where and why the notes are sustaining.
