Totally New Hung Notes Problem

I'm working on a project with Keolab's Spicy Guitar, but I've had this problem with other third-party softsynths, too (I haven't done much music lately).

Anyway, if I stop playback during a MIDI note, that note will be hung until I close and re-open Sonar. I have reset MIDI to no effect. When I restart the audio engine, the note is still playing. On other softsynths I can sometimes  play that note on my keyboard and it will release it, but not this time.

Specs: Sonar 7.0.2 Producer, Oxygen V8 controller, Windows 7 Home Premium.

I've checked the Event List, there are no CC's anywhere in the track.

This makes editing a real PITA, so if anyone has dealt with this issue, I would be much obliged.

Thanks, Rob

p.s. If this is a Spicy Guitar problem and not a Sonar problem, can anyone recommend a budget-priced guitar plug that will do hammer-ons and pull-offs. I've tried to mimic the effect on soundfonts with pitchbends, but no matter how I set things, the minimum "portamento" time is so long it sounds really terrible.

    I continued experimenting and the only softsynth I'm having the problem with is Spicy Guitar. I downloaded the trial version of RealGuitar and it works correctly. Looks like I need to drop the $150 on it. I have a feeling I won't regret it, however...
