MS Sound Mapper Does Not Exist

[solarblast]

When I try to play a clip in Vegas 6, I get an error msg:

The deviced specified is in use.
The playback device Microsoft Sound Mapper does not exist.

I have my camera powered down, but connected. I've brought Vegas up and down and the msg still occurs when I try to play the clip. I don't see any other windows using video.

I see that I double posted. How do I get rid of this one?

See the little red Report This Post message in the bottom right corner of your post ? That will send a message to the mods. Just ask them to delete or lock one of the posts.

I may have inadvertently gotten rid of it by pressing the dotted rectangle with a page inside it shown the post above. I became curious about it. I do see the red "report' symbol in the higher post list (editing, cutting, ...)

In any case, I rebooted and the message is gone. Probably some of the large number of windows I had open contained something that XP got confused by.
