  1. These was an issue last saturday with playback almost always starting from the beginning vs. where the song positional marker was placed (in the song overview). I could get around this by going into the track view, and clicking the global play, however. Additionally, the the song view was often not scrolling during playback, and that drives me crazy. I ended up just making the percussion hit earlier in order to emphasize my anger.

  2. Scrolling during playback is turned off if you grab a scroll bar, but then turned back on once you stop the song. I noticed a lot of scroll bar activity in the trace, is it possible there was some edge condition being hit -- like, perhaps scrolling wasn't turned on correctly if you started playback from a specific place, like the track editor. Did you notice any pattern like that?
