multicam sequence results in 3 stacked layers of video rather than 1 switchable layer

I have been working in Beta but after considerable time and aggravation have been working both in Beta and release 23.0 because of this:

1. Beta version multicam results in a sequence with 1 layer of multicam video but gives me identical audio on channels 1 and 2. What I need is all three audio sources on separate mono layers.

2. So after much aggravation I decided to try creating the multicam sequence in the release version (23.0) rather than in Beta. That resulted in 3 stacked layers of video, not switchable so technically not really a multicam sequence. However it did result in audio sources properly separated into individual mono layers.

What I ended up doing is creating multicam sequences in both versions of Premiere and then combining them so I had 1 multitrack video layer and 3 mono layers of audio. But that seems like a ridiculous way to proceed. I use multicam frequently and have not had these problems until last week.

Please make sure that the allow layers button to the left of the magnet in the timeline is blue (selected)  and then take your multicam sequence into the timeline.

@RobShultz thank you. Yes, the button is active.
