Hi Chris, I'm really baffled that no sound is working for you. It sounds like you've tried everything (even checked volume settings and other MIDI programs, right?).
The only suggestion I can think of is a bit painful on your part, and that is getting copies of CVS by date. If you can find the date where sound stopped working for you, and the date immediately prior to that where it was working, then we can compare the two. I know it's a drag, but if you don't mind it would be a huge help!
