No problems here with latest beta. Post a full MWE which reproduces the
problem instead of
snippets.

When using balance=no
the page is properly typeset
\setupcolumns[
n=5,
distance=4mm,
balance=no,
tolerance=tolerant]
When using balance=yes
It looks as if the page orientation became portrait mode, as the text
disappears at the bottom of
the page.
\setupcolumns[
n=5,
distance=4mm,
balance=yes,
tolerance=tolerant]
Some hints as how to proceed?
Thanks
