Michael:
Your analysis was correct.
When I reproduced the problem, seeing that "Toggle Repeat" did not
function, I left-clicked on the segment that already appeared to be
selected (causing no change in appearance). After doing that, "Toggle
Repeat" worked.
Perhaps (besides graying-out the toggle-repeat), it might be good to
look at the resize-segment functionality. If it doesn't leave the
segment selected, the segment shouldn't appear to be selected.
Thank you for looking at this, and giving me an easy way to get around
the problem, since I am likely to run into it again, recording material
for music lessons.

This could be something here. When I use the resize tool to diddle the
length of the segment, it's NOT selected when I release the mouse
button. I have to insert an extra step here and go select it manually.
This tells me you are more than likely ending up in the situation where
it appears to be selected, but in fact is not. Nothing happens, because
there's no active selection.
I've seen something like that before. It's trying to ring a bell, but
no dinging sound yet.
All of this makes me realize the Segment -> Toggle Repeat thing should
only be active if there's a selection anyway.
I fixed that. This will tell us whether the selection you see after
resizing your segment is a real selection or not. If it is, the
function will be available on the menu, and if it's not available there
(grayed out), I think you have a GUI that didn't update correctly, and
it's showing a selection erroneously.
