Default VCA GROUP not working like guide says

In the manual 5.17 Example 8 it says: Notice, however, that the VU meter levels on the slave
instrument tracks do not change during this. This is because the volume of the signal actually produced by each of these individual tracks is not changed. Instead, it is the volume of these tracks added to that of the VCA control track that is being sent to the master. Thus, the master's VU meter levels will change as the VCA control track fader is adjusted.
Issue: If I adjust the volume of the VCA control track, the slave tracks DO change volume, meters and all as if it was a plain old group Volume change. What's the deal?

Known error in the manual (found earlier today), Nicholas is changing it.

Advantage of VCAs over normal track groups is automation of master affects slaves.
