Assuming `git bisect` didn't point at exactly the merge commit, can you please
bisect to the exact commit, instead of the merge commit?  I.e.

  git bisect start
  git bisect bad a1c288f87de7aff94e87724127eabb6cdb38b120
  git bisect good e1a6d5cf10dd93fc27d8c85cd7b3e41f08a816e6

and go from there.

Hopefully it isn't the merge commit that's being blamed, as that will be far more
painful to figure out.
