Hello,
 
I'm wondering why i can not get any sound from my headphones (no monitors yet) even though everything worked fine last week.
Soundcard is working, but i can't hear anything through phones. Phones are working too (checked).
Something must have gone awry when i unplugged my USB soundcard to take notebook on the road for a few days.
i get home, plug in and now no sound.
Can anyone suggest a possible solution?
 
Thank you!

did you re-profile your sound card in Sonar? If you unplug your sound card(audio interface) and then start your PC without it, you may need to re-profile the sound card in Sonar again. That is normal operation. Sonar doesn't save settings, it just reads what is there at that point in time
 
So your fix is very very easy. Just set up your sound card back in Sonar and all will be well again.

Thank you, CJ.
 
To re-set up soundcard i go to 'control panel' in my laptop or go right to 'options' in Sonar?
sorry for my inexcusable lack of geek finesse. 

You should be able to press p in sonar To open preferences. Check your devices. Are they there? What mode are you using.. Asio?

Yes.   Using Asio.   thank you!

It's possible you've been bit by the "all sudden my plug goes to zero bug". I've had plugs just magically turn down to zero with no reason to explain it.

If your sound card is set up properly and we can only take your word on it, then your signal chain is flawed. Make sure your tracks go to your master bus and your master bus goes to your Main Outs 1/2

So... eliminate Sonar. Can you listen to youtube through your interface? Volume nob isn't at 0 is it?
 
Also, lots of people sometimes accidentally mute tracks or clips by accident. Muting the master bus could mess you up. Or sending the master bus to an out that isn't routed to headphones or stereo.
 
I suppose at a computer level, it is possible to disable your USB bus. That could make it so the interface doesn't work, but then the interface wouldn't show up in Sonar and you say it does.
 
Hmmm. Those are my ideas for now. Good luck!!
 
 

Thank you!!!
