    It could be you are saving MIDI files (.mid extension) instead of Cakewalk projects (.cwp extension).

    Does the Oxygen have its own soundset? If so, you'll need to import the patch changes into your MASTER.INS and set the patch in each track. Otherwise, it may be what Steve alludes to. When you save the file, do a Save As and make sure you select Sonar Project.
