There's a dropdown menu right above the track list that allows you to pick what mix options are displayed. Make sure it's set to "All" or "Mix." I always leave it on All.

Having ThreadSchedulingModel set to 2 may "look" nicer on the CPU meter but I've found it actually makes audio performance worse. I have a quad-core (8 with hyper threading) laptop and the 0 setting works the best. Of course, there could be other issues that could be causing audio clicks/dropouts. For instance, on my computer (it's actually a 2016 MacBook Pro running Boot Camp ha ha) I have to disable the ACPI battery driver (that monitors the battery level), the Wi-fi adapter, and the onboard sound to get glitch-free audio performance. The battery driver is the worst culprit. You'll want to download the LatencyMon program (do a Google search) and run it to see if other drivers are interfering with your computer's audio performance. 

Looks like the workaround is to save the track in a project "template" and then copy and paste the MIDI track into a new project as needed. After that, I only have to set up the remote control settings. It'd still be nicer to use actual track templates!

I'm trying to set up MIDI track templates so that I can control hardware or VST synths via an external MIDI controller. When I automate them, I typically use MIDI automation lanes that output NRPNs. I then set up remote control settings on each automation lane that respond to my external controller's CCs. But when I save a MIDI track set up this way as a template, none of the automation carries over to the new track template. I can't even set up a volume curve going over CC7 and have it save to a track template. That's kind of ridiculous! Hopefully this will get fixed in a future update?

I’ve had similar issues with BandLab Assist either not updating or not displaying anything other than a vertical white screen. Re-downloading from the web site seemed to fix it. I’m very grateful for BandLab for keeping Cakewalk alive and bringing us the forums (look great by the way!), but unfortunately Bandlab Assist is very poorly designed compared to the old Cakewalk Command Center. I hope they migrate that over soon. 🙂
