Cue buttons route the track to the monitor bus (mLAN 5/6 in your setup). But I dont think you read anywhere that this would mute the track from the main output bus, did you?
Try this: in the mLAN autoconnector, check that mLAN channels 17/18 are enabled, and assigned to "monitor". In Live, set monitor/cue channels to 17/18. Cue enable a track. Switch to monitor B on your 01x. You now hear the cue/PFL (remember, PFL stands for Pre Fader Listen, so no mixing in this mode, just... pfl). Back to monitor A, that's the mix (dont you use several mLAN channels as submix busses?).
Now, if what you want is an off-line mixing bus facility, try this: create 2 tracks "bus A" and "bus B". Set the crossfade group accordingly (A and B). Move the crossfader full A. Send some tracks output to "bus A", so you have a mix playing. Enable Cue on track "bus B", switch th 01x to monitor B, send some other Live tracks to "bus B", fiddle and tweak, monitoring mix B in your headphones, while mix A is heard through the Stereo out of the 01x. Happy with the result? use the crossfader to introduce mix B. Cue off "bus B", cue on "bus A", rince and repeat...
But as I said, I'd think you use more than 2x2 channels on your 01x, it's got sixteen... how'bout "bus A1, A2, ...B1, B2, ...". Thanks to Live versatile patching the combinations are limitless, enjoy.
