EG Legato setting doesn't work

Hi everyone,

I have a Minilogue XD, fantastic synth overall, though I'm struggling with some kind of malfunctioning (i think): if I make a new sound (starting from an empty bank in the presets) and I set an EG on that sound (basic pluck for example), then I put the synth in "unison" mode, the envelope does not retrigger when I play a second note - that way, I have to lift my finger from the note before playing a new one to get that effect of the envelope retriggering every single note I play. However, if I try to change this setting (edit mode -> program Edit -> EG Legato -> OFF) it does not change anything, the eg still doesnt retrigger.
I thought I was doing something wrong, maybe this was not the setting I should change, BUT i also tried the same setting change on an already existing preset (for example, sound #019 or #023). That way, putting the synth in Unison mode and changing the setting for EG Legato to OFF does set the retriggering of the envelope, exactly how I want it.
So now I'm asking, what kind of pre-existing setting in the empty banks is interfering with the EG retriggering in Unison mode, which also DOESN'T for the preset sounds? I already checked the Portamento Mode (Auto) and set the Portamento Knob on 0. So really I don't know what else to do.

Sorry for my improper english, for it's not my first language, but I try my best.

I really hope this is a stupid question and the solution is easy and clear, since I'm overall new to the Synth world (got my Minilogue and started studying like a couple of months ago).

Please help me, thank you all! ❤️
