ASIO4ALL Driver Glitch

Hey everyone.
I know I'm new here, but I've been having problems with my upgrade to Sonar 8 PE. In all previous versions, when I was using my laptop for basic mixing, I'd switch to ASIO4ALL drivers instead of hooking up my E-MU interface. However, now with S8PE, whenever I open a project, I have to open the Audio preferences menu before the audio will work. I don't have to change anything. I just have to open the Audio menu. A time-wasting annoyance that I never had with any other version of Sonar. Is this a common driver glitch? And is there a way to fix this?

    I think it must be common. I'm running 7.02PE and have to do the same, sometimes. Sometimes I don't need to, other times I do. As far as I can tell there's no rhyme or reason to it either. Latency times make no difference, I can't seem to find a common denominator at all. If anyone knows of one it'd be great. It's no great shakes but as Trevor N said it's a niggly annoyance.

    I'm assuming you are both running v2.9 of Asio4all.

    I don't know what codec you are using on the laptop but if it is HD Audio on Vista un-installing the 3rd party driver and using the generic MS windows one can help...or indeed if you use the generic windows one try the 3rd party one.

    V2.9 here. Audio interfaces are an Alesis Multimix and a DMX6Fire24/96. As I said it's not even consistent with me, seems to be when it feels like it.

    I'd switch to ASIO4ALL drivers instead of hooking up my E-MU interface. However, now with S8PE,

    so your using an onboard sound card instead of an audio interface, good luck with that. ASIO4all is a WDM wrapper, its not a driver and its no mirackle worker. If the onboard card doesnt have decent WDM drivers, ASIO4all wont work well either.
    Use yuor EMU.

    Okay I have what seems to be a 'fix' for the problem. Check the "Always resample 44.1kHz<-> 48kHz" option. This has stopped my issues and also explains the apparent randomness of mine. If a project was at 44.1 it'd play without the open and close audio options nonsense, if it was at 48 it wouldn't.
