apply layer mask Can be only applied to "Raster layer" , if you don't want the layer to be a smart object any more, first, Rasterize the Layer, then apply layer mask .

Rasterize the layer by pressing on an empty area next to the layer mak , right click and select Rasterize
then apply layer mask

Is the layer a smart object layer? Smart object layers pixels can not be changed.

Layer A is on the left of Layer B? That is what JJMack is pointing that you can not apply Layer B to Layer A when Layer A is Smart Object layer.
