How do you stop instruments from cutting off others?

So, I don't know if this is a problem that's befallen anyone else, but it seems as though if I use samples in my tracks, they have a sidechain effect applied (despite being clear on the mixer). For example, if I were to make a simple track, and then have a section where the default kick drum plays, if I increase the volume of the instrument (just using the volume knob), everything else would constantly grow quiet whenever the kick plays.

But yeah, it's not just kicks, or even drums. All samples seem to be affected. Any ideas>
