[WriteLog] Wav file playing(?)

[AD6E@aol.com]

I've had that problem come and go. It's pretty strange.

What I found works; keep the Windows mixer (double click Volume Control) open 
in the background. Either the MIC or WAV mixer input gets muted when WL does 
something. I havn't figured out exactly what that is. Every time I'd un-mute 
the MIC (or WAV) and close VC, WL would fail again. Opening up VC would show 
the mute active again. However, if I keep VC running behind WL that doesn't 
happen and the wave recording and playback work fine. Strange!

Note that this condition comes and goes. My laptop now seems to work fine 
even with VC closed. Last time I tried to use it with the voice keyer, it 
failed and I had to keep VC open in the background. I don't claim to 
understand any of this. I just happened to discover this little trick by 
experimenting (in panic mode).
