I encountered this exact problem last night with my Z9 and brand new Lexar Gold 1TB, also in slot 1. The matching 1TB card in slot 2 releases fine. I haven't tried the fridge/freezer method, but otherwise I have not found a solution for this yet. This was the first time I used this camera for a shoot, and didn't even shoot the volume or pace where the card would have expanded at all from heat. I did a couple of test shots when I first got the camera, with a 512GB Lexar card, and that released fine in slot 1.
I had the same issue 01/15/25 with my D9 and a new lexar 512Gb card, was able to release card with 2 small zip ties, came out on first try. I noticed the card had a slight lip after the label, smoothed this flush and card seams to be working fine now in slot 1. used a blade knife to lower the lip, seems to have worked, time will tell?
