Check out my previous post (though you'll probably already have read it 
if you're reading this one!)

Tracks have to have data on them for their preset choices to be saved. 
 This is to both reduce MIDI spew (32 volumes, pans, preset changes, 
arps, sends, etc.) and to allow you to have channels that don't change 
their presets when you change the pattern so you can perhaps solo with a 
particular sound over multiple patterns.
