Odyssey cant use LFO at same time as jack to kill retrigger

Just got a Korg Odyssey module today. I like to use the external connection between Gate Out and Trig In so that the ADSR plays legato and doesn't retrigger. The trouble is, this also seems to disconnect the LFO, so PWM and S/H stop working! Am I doing something wrong or must I have a fully re-triggering ADSR if I want PWM or LFO S/H? Bizarre!

This is one of the cool things about using the CV interface with a sequencer - free running LFO!

It would be if I was using a sequencer . I'm getting no LFO at all when keys are held. The original Odyssey had a capacitor in the LFO reset circuit that restarted the LFO on a new keypress but allowed it to run therafter. Well done Korg saving the cost of a capacitor - your LFO now stays off.
