WaveLab Elements 8 mutes sound card on exit

[Rolando!]

I took a chance and upgraded WaveLab Elements 7 to Elements 8 in the hope that the problem I had would be resolved. Although the upgrade price was reasonable, I still feel like a sucker.

Everything sounds great while the program is up; however, when I exit WaveLab, my audio card mutes, requiring me to click on the card icon in the Taskbar. To save trouble, I already checked the Task Manager - WaveLab is not hung up there.

I cannot understand why I can use my DVD/Blu-Ray Player, Windows Media Player, and SoundForge Audio Studio without this nagging bug rearing its ugly head. I now open the floor for discussion. Thanks!

What audio card? I advise you to use the MME driver. Did you try this?

I just followed your advice, and ... WHAMMO! The problem is gone. Now I can spend my time looking at all the cool stuff on WLE 8! Thank you very much for your help!
