I have virtual audio cable on my machine, which I have made available
4 virtual line inputs, line 1 through 4 in case of need or
complexity. the purpose of virtual audio cable is to be able to
virtually route within your machine any audio device's output to the
input of another. Well I told window-eyes to use line one, and the
utility for virtual audio cable to route line one back to my sound
card and vuala, I hear eloquence. when I, though, attempt to route
eloquence to my sound card, I hear nothing, though everything else in
my computer sees my sound card. This is stranger and stranger though
it appears something got scrambled when I moved from North Dakota and
re-plugged in my USB devices. I am going to unplug my "yeti" USB
microphone which also is listed as an "output" or "playback" device
and see if the problem goes away, it is all I can think of else, to
remedy this weird issue.
thanks! all for the suggestions.

Check the sound card choices and try setting to the Default if it
isn't already there. Also, try plugging in headphones when you are
switching to one of the software synthesizers. I have had it happen on one of
my computers where Window-Eyes speech and Windows sounds get
separated, one going through headphones and the other through my
speakers. Plugging in headphones and then unplugging them seems
to get both back together.
