Channels Missing Message On Startup

For some reason every time I load a project Sonar tells me that a few of my tracks are set to silent outputs and that they will not work until these outputs have been re-assigned.  The Master output is included in this list.  I have checked and checked again and there are no incorrectly assigned outputs and everything works correctly when I play back my track, including the Master bus.
 
Any ideas how to solve this?
 
P.S. I must say I am very unimpressed with the amount of bugs in this software.  I have X1b installed and I don't think I will by another Cakewalk product.
 
Thanks,

    you need to go into your preference menu and select your soundcard under the drivers tab..if you do not have a soundcard hooked up this is the message you get..are you using your computers sound card or an external interface?..put your spec in your signiture or write then out.

    Ok, here are my specs:
     
    Moto 828 mk3 with the latest drivers
    Windows 7 (x64) intel i7 @ 2.8ghz
    6 GB RAM
    Sonar X1B
     
    I do have my Moto selected as my sound card and regardless of the error screen I click OK and it works perfectly.  The error will say "Kick is set to a silent output" - I check the track labelled kick and it is set to Master which is correct and the track plays perfectly.  It also says the Master output is set to a silent output yet it too works properly if I ignore the error.
     
    Any advice?
     
    Thanks!

    Do you have any hidden or archived tracks set to a bus which no longer exists?

    I've gotten that error quite a few times after doing some updates to Win or did some software changes and my solution to this is just to re-install the drivers for my soundcard (eventhough the drivers are the latest updated version, I still re-install them).
    This always removes that "Silent Output Error".
