Which 'Input' and 'Output' boxes to check in Ableton 12 for Komplete Kontrol S49 Mk2?

I've followed the setup guide in this article for Ableton 12 but it only describes what to select in the 'Control surface' section of the MIDI settings. I've set that to Komplete Kontrol S Mk2, and Komplete Kontrol - DAW for input and output as described in the article. However, there's also a large 'Input' and 'Output' section below, and three ports are showing up for KK in both the Input and Output section:

  1. Komplete Kontrol - 1
  2. Komplete Kontrol EXT -1
  3. Komplete_Kontrol_S_Mk2_Input (and Output in the Output section)

There are 4 checkboxes for each one - Track, Sync, Remote, and MPE. This makes for literally hundreds of possible configuration possibilities.

What do we check/uncheck here? I need 'Track' checked in Input in order to play notes, but what else?

Something in KK is constantly sending MIDI in Ableton and it's messing up my stuff. E.g. When I try and record my Nymphes, KK is constantly sending CC11 to 127, which is the Noise level, so Noise is always at 100%. Not ideal!

Any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks!
