I have an old two-valve shower (no tub) that leaks cold water and no hot water comes out when I turn the hot handle.

Bought the house a year ago and the shower head leaked. It’s an old American Standard Aquaseal style (pics attached). I replaced the hot and cold valve stems and it worked for a month. Now, no water will come out when I turn the hot handle and the shower is slowly leaking again. Cold water still comes out. The sink is on the same pipe and the hot water works fine.

Is there a mixing valve somewhere that I’m missing? I don’t see anything behind the wall (pics attached). I took the valve stems out to inspect and they look fine. Any thoughts? Thanks so much!
