As I sent the issue to you and see you fixed it I am very thankful and happy to use unity further in future.

2018.4.9f1 is still affected.
This workaround seems to work for us in the meantime: make sure your sub emitters have a high enough Max Particles setting.
Example:
If you have a particle system with Max Particles set to 5, and it has a sub emitter that spawns 7 particles for each parent particle, then the Max Particles of the sub emitter should be at least 5 × 7 = 35.
