To me it looks like that did not happen:

Above 0000000100000007000000D0 is gone/recycled on the master and the
archived version does not seem to be complete as the streaming
replication is trying to find it.
Below you kick the master and it coughs up the files to the archive
including *D0 and *D1 on up to *D4 and then the streaming picks using *D5.

Best guess is the archiving did not work as expected during:
