VST Instrument Track only plays when solo'ed

Cubase

I have an existing project running on a new build and noticing that one of my instrument tracks loaded with East West Opus - Hollywood Choirs will only play audio and show notes on the plugins virtual keyboard when in Solo mode. When project is played back with everything no sound from the instrument. Everything looks to be routed correctly. I have a group output that goes to stereo buss and since I can hear sound when in solo I believe that proves its correct. Thoughts on what I am missing? Screen shots and full disclosure below:

Full disclosure: This is running on a new studio machine after a sound card upgrade RME Raydat from RME HDSP PCI. The machine has Top Specs. X670e, Ryzen 9, 4 M.2 drives, 128 gig ram. Working pretty well, after installs which took days. but still working out some bugs..

Hi,

Ensure, there is no other track or bus Soloed.

Click on Disable All Solo State button, to ensure it.

Thank you Martin, This helped me fix it as after I toggled the mute on the choir group on and off it started working. There were no other solos and as you can see above the group was never showing as muted when playing previously. Im not going to dwell on it as its fixed but very strange. Thanks again. Very much appreciated.

There’s a bug that can occur where a track is in a muted state but the mute indicator is not lit up.

No idea how to reproduce it, I just always check to see if its the issue when running into this as clicking mute on and off is a quick operation.

GPnicolett, this is good to know. I almost drove myself crazy trying to figure out what the issue was.
