Eventide UltraReverb VST slider positions not saved

In SONAR X3e Eventide UltraReverb VST settings (example, wet/dry mix) revert to preset defaults once the PLAY button is pushed. Before PLAY the sliders are as saved. Hit PLAY and they snap to default position. 
There was similar problem with Waves Vitamin in X3a that was fixed when I installed X3e.
Snap back to defaults makes UltraReverb pretty much unusable.
Anyone else seeing this problem? Know of a fix?

Well. I just tried the following sequence again and can reproduce the problem.

1. Plugin instance in audio track. Load a preset. Default wet/dry = 50%. 
2. Wet/dry set to 10%. Close plugin. Reopen to verify wet/dry is still at 10%.
3. Project Saved
4. Project reopened and plugin opened. Verify wet/dry is as saved at 10%.
5. Hit PLAY. Wet/dry slider jumps to 50%
 
I'm at X3e x64 build 244 on Window 8.1 64bit.
Plugin is Eventide UltraReverb as a VST2.

Does it matter whether you start playback from the beginning or in the middle of the project?
Actually, I don't think this is the situation in your case, but anyway:
IIRC, I've experinced something similar a few times in the past. I  assume I had accidentally (somehow, it remains a mystery to me) inserted an envelope or the plugin in question could somehow link the settings to the Now Time position when the setting was made. Playing back the project from the beginning gave false settings, but the right ones jumped on somewhere later in the project.

Any chance the Zero Controllers setting in MIDI preferences could be affecting this?
 

I don't know this would affect UltraReverb, but just in case you do need it some day....

The Zero Controllers check box is a 'project-level' option, and can be found in Preferences>Project>Midi, then look under Other Options
 
Here is the link to the X3 doc on those options:

I had this same issue happen to me, but only once, and only on one instance of UltraReverb among many that were being used in the project. It was very strange. If I remember correctly, the settings would be saved, but the Dry/Wet slider would revert to default (100% wet) only after hitting the loop point. So, I would be listening to the last few seconds of a track that I composed to loop seamlessly, and I'd have to keep readjusting the dry/wet setting every time it looped back to the beginning of the track. Again, only on the one instance of UltraReverb (it was on an acoustic guitar). Very annoying. I think what I ended up doing is taking a screenshot of the settings I had it on, deleting that instance, reloading a new one, and just redoing the settings I had it on.
