I’ve noticed this sort of thing happening on the input channels, not the master.
I think the channel strip peak light will come on if there is a peak somewhere in the signal chain.
On the channel that i noticed it on, the peak was occurring after the eq, before the compressor. The EQ curve in question had some boost in it and the compressor was pulling the level down so the physical channel meter above the fader (post processing, pre fader) had the peak light and signal present lights on without the 0dB light.
