I've never used the WS roadbed so can't tell how it behaves. Cork is pretty stiff and will support just about anything you put on top of it....But there's no need for that. I use clear latex caulk for gluing the track down. Just lay a bead down the center line, and spread it out to track width with a spatula. don't use too much...it will just ooze up between the ties and make ballasting more of a pain than it needs to be. Make sure you "eyeball" track alignment before the latex starts setting up (it doesn't take but a few minutes). I use bulletin board pins to hold the track in place (placed between the ties) while the latex sets up, generally I'll leave it overnight. Next day you'll have some pretty well glued track which should work great..!!
If you're having problems mostly at the A's turnouts, you know what the fix is there....I've used only Pecos on my latest layout, and have had absolutely NO PROBLEMS with them....
