The type of radio might matter for a fix for the problem.
If wsjt-x is set up to use CAT control from the computer, it
will use CAT to set the radio into transmit mode, so the fact
that the radio is in transmit mode doesn't mean that VOX has
been activated. If this is the case, it is possible there is a
problem with the sound card/cable(s).

Everything works OK on transmit except that intermittently the
K3 output falls to zero even though the sound card audio output
level isn't changing. The VOX stays on, so the K3 is "hearing"
the audio. ALC usually but not always falls to zero from the 4
bars level. Even weirder, if I turn the MIC gain (LINE) down to
zero and back up again the output and ALC come back up to normal.
Is this a hardware fault? A software fault? Or something even weirder? My FW
