This is the weird thing. When you choose what VST to use, such as AT3, the very first thing you do is:
1. rt click on an empty track to make it an audio track
2. press the FX button
3. Hit the "track" drop down and scroll all the way to the bottom and choose "input monitoring"
4. Hit the "plugin" drop down and choose AT3
I little strange but that's how it works. Of course you need to use ASIO with the 2 boxes checked as you mention.
