[WriteLog] quick reality check - RTTY and sound cards

[Rich]

WL/MMTTY does support what you are trying to do with one PC.  I do that 
all of the time.

I really do not have a solution to your issue, but you might want to 
check these things.

When using two radios on one PC you need to have MMTTY and 2tone 
installed in multiple folders

ex: /mmtty1/ = K4

ex: /mmtty2/ = K3

A separate copy needs to be run for each radio.

Windows updates can really screw up your audio devices so......

Check your Windows sound settings and make sure enhanced audio is 
disable.  For both sound cards that are created when you plug in the USB.

  I just drove myself crazy helping a friend with an IC7300 which would 
not receive and that was the issue.

Also make that the audio is 2 ch 48000hz and not only 1 ch 48000hz.   
1ch will cause MMTTY to ignore the sub-receiver

MMTTY.ini file contains some info on your sound device

SoundDevice=5
SoundOutDevice=4

You might want to check that also

I truly do not believe any of these would effect your sound device not 
showing up in MMTTY if it is in device manager

but it is worth a try

A windows update seems that most likely cause of the problem
