Virtual ports are loaded (created) when Router starts. They can take
30 seconds to two minutes to load depending on other CPU load and the
number of ports being created.

Check your audio configuration in "Functions" - make sure you are not
switching audio. Also check both the Windows soundcard set-up
(Microphone - USB Audio CODEC) and RTTYrite. Windows shouls be set for
"2 channel, 16 bit 44100 Hz (CD Quality)" and RTTYrite should be set
for Stereo Soundcard - FSK or AFSK. The Windows Sound Control Panel
should not be open when running RTTYrite or MMTTY.

That sounds very much like you have selected "Steer FSK" on Router's
Ports Tab and have selected R1 audio with RX Focus on R1 and R2 audio
with RX Focus on R2 in your current Function. Watch the LEDs on the
MK2R+ front panel above the Recording/Digital controls when you switch
entry windows ... if they change you have a Router/MK2R+ configuration
issue ... if they don't change the issue is probably in the Windows or
RTTYrite configuration.
