Help Connecting 2 Traktor Z1s + 2 X1s – Only One Z1 Recognized in Traktor Pro 4

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to set up the following configuration in Traktor Pro 4:
•2× Traktor Kontrol Z1 MK2 (only using 1 for audio output)
•2× Traktor Kontrol X1 MK2
•All connected via a powered USB hub to a MacBook Pro running macOS Sonoma 14.1.1
Issue:
Only one Z1 is being recognized by Traktor. The second Z1 powers up (orange light on top), but does not appear in the Controller Manager, and nothing shows up in the In-Port/Out-Port dropdowns when I add a second Z1 mapping.
macOS does detect both Z1s — I can see them both in the System Report under USB.
What I’ve tried:
•Swapping the USB connection order
•Adding the second Z1 manually in Controller Manager
•Using different USB ports and cables
•Confirmed both units work individually
•Using just one Z1 for audio (the other is meant purely as a MIDI controller for Deck C/D)
Question:
•Is it possible to use two Z1s at once in Traktor Pro 4 — one for audio, one as a MIDI mixer?
•If not natively supported, is putting the second Z1 in MIDI mode (Mode + FX on power-up) and mapping it manually the only solution?
•Anyone here successfully running this setup?

And are you running Traktor Pro 4.2? It just got released a few days ago which added the two z1 mode. But I have not tested it and I don't know if you need to do something special for it to work.
