Weird runeword bug interaction on rogue

I’d like to report what is hopefully a weird bug interaction I ran across today. While playing my rogue, I have been using the “CirCeh” runeword, casting the same non-channeled spell 3 times causes a spirit wolf to appear. Awesome. Works great with my basic attacks. Then I equipped the cold-clip aspect, which changed my basic attacks to cold imbued, and suddenly the runeword stopped working. Taking the aspect off, goes right back to working… Checked the basic attack tags and doesn’t say anything about turning it into a channeled spell. Is the imbument having a weird unintentional affect or am I just crazy?
