If you are using the vipcommunicator, it happens more. If you can boot up and get past your password, run sndvol32 from the run dialogue and tab twice and hit the space bar. This works for me in an emergency.

I have a problem with my sound card muting all audio, seemingly at random. Everything looks normal on the computer but there is no sound. And if I open up Sounds and Audio devices, everything shows as muted. This problem can happen once and then not happen again for 3 months or it can happen 2 days in a row while I'm in the middle of work. So far, there's no rhyme or reason for this anomaly. My question then? Aside from trusting Windows to maintain a given audio setting, might there be software that forces audio to assume certain settings upon rebooting? Failing that, could I somehowe save a given audio configuration to the desktop, one thatI could locate and press to force my audio settings to take effect? This is an extremely random problem, so I would like a method of countering it while I try to figure out what's causing it. Thanks for any ideas.
