When I select all, click 'cntrl/lower volume' from 0 to inf on a track, not all tracks are affected.
Everything is post fader. I should hear nothing right? 
Most noticeable with folders collapsed.
Is this a bug?
 
thx

IIRC it depends - if the track you choose to control click on is already at a lower volume than other tracks you will still here the louder ones, albeit at a reduced volume. If you control click on the loudest track and reduce it to infinity you should not hear anything as all tracks will be silenced.

Yep, if all of your faders are roughly in the middle of their travel, they will all increase or decrease proportionally if you cntrl + drag any of them up down.
 
But to get them all to -INF you need to start by using the one with the highest value as a sort of "base" and lower this one.
 
So no, it's not a bug :)

Possible your hearing an FX in a bus ?
Or a send level from a bus ?
Sorry misunderstood the question.
Jonsey is correct, grab the highest level fader and drop it. this will zero everything to rock bottom.

I guess I wasn't clear. Sorry.
Some folders are collapsed.
There are no tracks louder than 0db.
I select all tracks. (cntrl/A). 
I use a track with a volume slider reading of 0.
I control/click on the volume slider of the aforementioned track and bring it down to inf.
I still hear stuff.

Well you need to analyse what you're hearing and where it's coming from.
 
Do you have any Pre Fader sends going into your Fx busses? That would cause sound to continue, even with all track faders at -INF
 
Check all of your meters - Tracks & Busses - this will give you a massive clue.

Just did a quick test - you are quite right. Control/Click on track volume, pan or gain sliders for quick grouping does not work with collapsed folders, even though the tracks are highlighted as selected when the folder is expanded.

It's been that way with me, too.  I just open all folders then select all and change the volumes.

What happens when you do it in Console View?
