Logic Pro 11 and Komplete S49 Keyboard Monitor Issue

Returned to music after decades so anything I used to know is long gone from memory, although using a Midi Keyboard is new for me because I am a guitar player. My issue is monitoring in Logic Pro which I have not used in a long time. I recorded a series of tracks using my guitar and some Logic Sessions players. Everything plays fine and I can monitor all those tracks with headphones plugged into my iMac M1. I can record the S49 in Logic Pro but I cannot hear the instrument through my headphones, the output from the S49 track is coming through my speakers and I can't find a way to direct them to my headphones. Must be something simple but I have tried everything I can think of and it still does not work

This feels more like an audio interface output issue than something connected to Logic Pro. Usually the signal summed to speakers and headphones is on the same output of Logic and is routed via the software of the interface itself, i.e. RME Totalmix etc. If not, you could of course try to set another output on the mixer section.

Thanks for taking the time to try and help with the suggestion, however that was not the problem. I finally fixed the issue by going into Logic and selecting the Surface Controller in Settings, then went to setup for S49 in the menu, choose AUDIO then changed the output from Headphones to System Settings and that solved the problem for me. Now I can hear all tracks in the headphones. Lesson: Persistence pays off.
