Track monitoring during playback

[unsound]

New track, let's say track 2 is armed as if I was going to record but instead of hitting the record button I hit the play button so the previous track (track 1) plays and I can still hear the input on the newly armed track therefore being able to play along with the previous track (track 1)

Let's go this way.....

Set up track 1

arm track 1

record guitar to track 1

unarm track 1

listen back....all is good.

Setup track 2

arm track 2

decide to work on idea I want to record to track 2 before actually recording to it

with track 2 still armed I hit play, and track 2 with nothing recorded to it yet automatically mutes itself, defeating
the ability to hear the input on the empty track 2 during playback.
