P: Audio tracks won't lock or unlock individually. Can only lock or unlock all of them at once

Hi,

 

I am currently working in a teams project and after days of troubleshooting other issues, my project refuses to let me lock audio tracks properly. 

Whenever I try to lock a track the button gets stuck like this and doesn't actually lock

The only way to lock audio tracks is to hold shift and lock all of them at once. It goes the same the other way around, if all tracks are locked, I am unable to unlock one individually. The lock icon looks like this, again, without actually unlocking the track

 

Was the locking audio tracks function done away with to make room for more generative AI "features" or am I doing something wrong?

 

Thanks,

Zack

I'm on version 25.1.0 (Build 73)

 

The issue seems only to affect Team Projects.

When working in a Team Project, the audio track lock button has stopped working. When clicking on the button, its status changes but has no effect on the track.

 

Also, when right-clicking on an audio track in the timeline, the Audio Channels option is greyed out.

Hi there,

 

We're sorry to hear about this. Let us know the version of Premiere Pro that you are using. Does this happen specifically when working with team projects or with regular projects as well?

 

Thanks,

Sumeet

Hi @MissionPictures ,
I have updated the status of this bug from NeedsMore Info to Acknowledged.  This means the team is working on it!

I hope we can find a solution soon. Sorry for the frustration!

So I need to do this everytime I need to unlock and lock tracks? Or I guess you're saying convert it to a local project and then convert back to Team when not working on it anymore?

I don't understand what @Rach McIntire means by updating status? What's been updated? Is there a solution? I'm pretty stuck right now...

A workaround is to convert to a local project to make changes necessary via
Edit > Team Project > Convert, but that’s kind of a hack and this
definitely should be fixed somehow.

Same issues on my teams projects with premiere 24. It's killing me. Lock doesn't work on audio tracks, but work fine with video tracks. Also sometimes solo will work for a few minutes, then randomly stop working. (Side note, why doesn't premiere have shortcuts to solo specific tracks? Would die for that feature)

Has there been any updates to this @Rach McIntire? My project has been broken like this for a couple months now and I have a deadline coming up with a client
