I can't replicate this. Could you provide an minimal example that
demonstrates the problem?

I would probably do the same thing you did: i.e., use column view in the
archive file. You could also try including archive files in the agenda
("v A") and then using column view in the agenda. That would have the
effect of merging archived and non-archived tasks into a single view.

Best,
Matt
