[S]olo and [M]ute states in Qtractor track stack is working exactly as designed. In fact, setting one track to [S]olo will mute all others but it won't the be same as pressing the [M]ute button on all that. You can have several tracks in solo state at the same time, meaning that only those will play, all others logically muted. You can also have all combinations of [S]olo and/or [M]ute tracks, following that [M]ute has precedence semantics.
This design is nothing new in fact. It is intentional and at least tries to replicate the behavior of good old Cakewalk Pro Audio last time I've touched it ;) It is also the same in several other contemporary DAWs but I can't really tell which as I don't quite follow theirs.
In addition, In case you did not found, there's also this exclusive toggle feature when switching those track [S]olo and [M]ute buttons. Just try it while the SHIFT or CTRL is pressed :)
Cheers
