This is making me CRAZY. Put a live input from interface → audio track into monitor mode so you can hear it. Ok. now you want to play with existing tracks so hit play. track goes out of monitor mode. Ok, enable it on the fly while in play. When you stop play track goes back out of monitor mode.

What is the problem here ? why doesn’t the track stay in monitor mode ? this wasn’t a consistent problem before, now it is. Its insane. This is such a basic thing that should just work.

You might check to see if the Spacebar Key Command was accidentally changed to Toggle the Monitor.

space bar definitely not changed. even if I use xtouch to start / stop play the same bad behavior of turning off the monitoring of track.

problem is specific so far to audio tracks, instrument (MIDI) tracks seem ok

What is your settings in :
Preferences/Vst/Auto monitoring?
Set it to “manual”!
