Ableton automatically selects that track when solo button is triggered

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to solve a workflow issue in Ableton Live related to track selection when using Solo via a MIDI controller (Novation Launch Control).

Problem:
Whenever I trigger Solo on a track, Ableton automatically selects that track and switches the view (Device/Clip View follows the selected track).
This becomes very disruptive, because my view keeps jumping around while performing.

Goal:
I want to trigger Solo without changing the currently selected track (i.e. no UI focus change).

What I tried in Control Surface Studio:

• Standard Solo mapping → causes track selection (expected behavior)
• Attempts to “re-select” previous track → not reliable / not working as intended

Question:
Is there any way in Control Surface Studio to:

• trigger Solo without selecting the track, or
• prevent Ableton from changing the selected track, or
• force the selection to stay on the previously selected track (stable, no jumping)?

I assume this might be a limitation of the Live API, but since Push seems to behave differently, I’m wondering if there’s a workaround or advanced scripting approach.

Any ideas or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
