Default Timeline selection while playing forces playhead jump

Since I jumped from 7.3 to 9.0.1, I lost my ability to make a selection on a region during playback - and not have the play head jump to the selection.

I've tried all the normal transport playback options - but none of them give me the ability to make a selection (during playback) without the playback being interrupted and restarting at my selection point.

(for example deleting/trimming regions - without interrupting playback.

I know I had this ability with 7.3, what happened during the upgrade? Hopefully it's an error on my part and not a bug. But I've exhausted all the preference options.

I appreciate any help getting me back on track.

For clarification - I re-read the Operations Preferences part of the Pro Tools Reference Guide. The option that I believe is not working for me is:

"Play Start Marker Follows Timeline Selection"

Checking / UnChecking that options does not result in any change to playback.

Bug?

This happens, when under Options the following two things are checked:

"Dynamic Transport" and "Link Timeline and Edit Selection".

Thanks Meads!!!

It was the "Dynamic Transport" option that was checked. As soon as I unchecked that, this problem was resolved and the pre/post roll started to work.

Now I have to go read the manual to learn what Dynamic Transport does besides make me frustrated because it overrides other options!

I appreciate it!
