Problem Trying to Assign Outputs (Sonar and Kontakt 5)

Hi everyone,
 
I'm new to the forum, and a new user to Sonar Platinum and Kontakt, though not really new to Sonar. I'm trying to assign outputs to a Brass Ensemble instance I set up and I'm running into a problem setting the outputs.
 
Normally, when I go to assign, I see something like this in the drop down:
 
Kt. horn: Left (mono)
Kt. horn: Right (mono)
Kt. horn/Kt.horn: R. Stereo
 
For some reason, however, when I get to a certain point of adding instruments, the menu changes to something like this, combining two instruments together:
 
Kt. bass: Left (mono)
Kt. horn: Right (mono)
Kt. bass/Kt. horn: Stereo
 
This results in neither of the tracks outputting, and no matter how many things I add after, or how many times I delete these tracks and try to start over, it doesn't work; it doesn't get "fixed."
 
Does anyone have a solution for this? Help is much appreciated.
 
 

Could you post some printscreen?

Bob, here is a screen shot. Thank you for taking a look.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kGH2A9xKfw    Heres a video I made - actually outlining some of the things the Robert Bone above helped increase my awareness of, although I see that you have already covered many of the steps outline in it.    I have never been able to get Sonar to properly label more than 4 outputs from Kontakt, although it did recieve proper audio to the channels, they just arent labeled the way I would like.

Another thing that I do is that after loading up 4-6 instruments into a single Kontakt instance, I run one of the batch functions (look in the Output Section and you will see where you can open up a list of Batch Functions) - the one that I run is the one to clear out the Output Section and create an output for each loaded instrument.
 
With limiting the number of loaded instruments, and the batch function to recreate the Output Section with a stereo output channel for each loaded instrument, I never have the issue anymore of screwed up routing assignments.
 
If you REALLY want to make things easy to read, the one other thing I do with each output channel is to double-click on each output channel's name (a mashed up condensed version of the preset), and I rename each output channel name to something that makes more sense and is shorter.  SO, instead of some crazy squished up name, I will name it Piano, or Rhodes, or Violin, or Bass, etc.) Then when I am making routing assignments for the associated audio tracks, it is easy to see Piano Left, Piano Right, etc.

Again - it is not a bad thing to have additional instances.  It uses some more memory, however it distributes the CPU load across cores much better.
 
Have fun! :)
