I think we could rephrase this to describe the purpose of "indicator (green circle with an X)". In a flow chart (I just looked this up...) the symbol is a "summing junction" which suggests that any enabled audio tracks are summed, i.e., mixed to form the output audio. This corresponds with definition of AudioTrack.

Unless you prefer to do it, I could raise a PR with suggested text along those lines.

Good catch. PR sounds good to me if you have time. I've filed an issue to ensure this gets done one way or the other :)
