Cannot add video to new tracks.

SUMMARY
Can add new tracks, but they cannot be used.  I cannot add any clips to the new tracks.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new track.
2. Drag drop video clip from bin to new track.

OBSERVED RESULT
Newly created video tracks do not work.

EXPECTED RESULT
New video track should allow clips to be added and edited.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
x86_64
Linux/Mint: 19.3
Kdenlive: 20.08.1

It seems you work with shortcuts. Click on V1 in the track header to make the track active. More details see here " 3 point editing with keyboard shortcuts": https://kdenlive.org/en/2019/08/kdenlive-19-08-released/

If drag and drop the clip into the timeline doesn't work as well please try with the current Kdenlive AppImage version 20.08.1 to see if there are any packaging issues https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/release/

I've tried both the app image and the installed version.  When I drag the
vid clip to the track  I get the hand with the graphic showing it will add
the clip, but it never drops on the track.
I've also tried the latest dev version (20.11.70) and still have the same
issue.

After attempting to edit the tracks in two different versions I am now
unable to add video to my original tracks.  I will keep experimenting, but
I think it's a definite bug.

I just noticed something else as well.  Clicking the active/inactive [V1]
doesn't do anything.  On the tracks that work I can edit them no matter
what the toggle is set to.  On the tracks that don't work I cannot do
anything with them no matter what I do.

Please following this steps
 https://userbase.kde.org/Kdenlive/Manual/Windows_Issues#Cannot_open_projects_made_with_previous_version.2C_timeline_snaps_back.2C_cannot_import_clip 
to see if there is any mismatch in the setup.

That's minor, I'm more concerned about not being able to use new tracks.

I spent the evening putting a new updated installation of Mint Linux 20 on
my computer.  I still have the same issue of new tracks not allowing me to
add video clips.  It must be a compatibility issue between Mint and
kdenlive.  I haven't read any complaints from people using other OS's
having this issue.
