Interestingly, I just repaired a slime tube yesterday.

The slime was indeed frozen inside the tube; no question about it. It was in a hard icy lump.

If your bike is in freezing temperatures, the slime will freeze in the tube.
Was the bike left in the cold prior to the repair?

Maybe I haven't had problems because, the bike is indoors before I set off of a morning, and the liquid doesn't have time to set into a lump. All I can say is I've had no problems.
