Ghosts in the MIDI

Yea, strangeness. I've been able to get it working but am seeing inconsistencies. It seemed I was reproducing the original problem when setting this up against an existing .qtr file so I created a new file with data first and then setup the control connection. That worked. OK, what's different about those files?

grep says the schema is different between the new (ControlTest.qtr) and old (Test.qtr)

> grep -B3 CCAuto ControlTest/ControlTest.qtr
     </midi-patch>
    </midi-map>
   </midi-bus>
   <midi-bus name="CCAuto" mode="duplex">
--
   <control-inputs>
    <connect index="0">
     <client>128:Qtractor</client>
     <port>3:CCAuto</port>

> grep -B3 CCAuto Test/Test.qtr
     </midi-patch>
    </midi-map>
   </midi-bus>
   <midi-bus name="CCAuto" mode="duplex">
--
    <input-connects>
     <connect index="0">
      <client>128:Qtractor</client>
      <port>1:CCAuto</port>
--
    <output-connects>
     <connect index="0">
      <client>128:Qtractor</client>
      <port>1:CCAuto</port>

I'm actually not even sure how I got it working in Test.qtr at this point but I can select clips now and I also got it working in another already existing file where the data ended up looking like what is shown in the first example.

I think we're good. Must have been a ghost in that Test.qtr file or something.
