I seem to have fixed our glitch. I believe the problem started when we installed a quickcam, which installs an additional audio device for the quickcam's built-in mic.
I fixed it by downloading the latest audio driver for this laptop's on-board audio device, removing the on-board audio device in Device Manager, rebooting and re-installing it. Then I made sure the on-board sound device was the default for recording from the Sound Control Panel. Toggling talk in rat now allows listen without talk on. Cheers. Gavin W.
