What is in the 3rd layer? If there are no objects in the 3rd layer, nothing will be selected.

I guess you want to add to selection? You can't do that on the 3rd empty layer.

Switch to your first layer, and use alpha to selection.

Switch to the 2nd layer, and use add to selection.

Now you may use the combined selection on the 3rd layer if you wish.
