Red Cicles Next to Recorded Layers - Layers Won't Play

I've never seen this. I loop recorded a couple of takes and all the takes except for the last, shortened version have a small red circle or symbol next to it and they won't produce any audio. The last take that didn't finish through the loop plays.

Any help?

Well I've been doing this all day and haven't seen this yet but let's say that's so. How do I play them now?

Previously they would all play and I had to manually mute each track I didn't want to hear. Again how do i now get them to play?

Default key mapping now to unmute is 'K'.
 
This is the behavior when you go into Edit | Preferences | Project | Record and select 'Overwrite'. 
 
From the online help:
 
SONAR loops between the loop start and loop end time, allowing you to record one take on each pass. SONAR creates a clip for each take. You have three choices for where these clips are stored:
●  All clips can be recorded in Sound on Sound mode and stored in a single track, where they are stacked on top of one another.

●  All clips can be recorded in Overwrite mode in a single track, where each take is successively muted except the last one.

I 'think' if you right click on the record button your record loop options come up. I 'think'. Not sure, I'm not at my daw now. Hope this helps.

Bub is correct.  Right clicking on the record button quickly takes you to the Recording Mode dialog box.  I didn't know that...

But your recording mode was on 'overwrite', correct?   I believe that's what is creating this behavior. 
 
There are several different mute settings & priorities...  One is at the clip level, by selecting the clip & pressing K. 
The other is muting/soloing the different layers/takes, by using the little Ms & Ss.  
The clip mute takes precedence, i.e., if you see the little red circle, the clip won't play even if you press the 'S'. 
Hope this helps.
