Good deal Ed.  Sounds like Windows 7.   If you are using a recent 
version of jaws, you can go to utilities/soundcards in the drop down 
menu and see which sound card is selected.  You must have something in 
your system that windows sees as another sound device.  If the jaws menu 
is set to " windows default sound card" and  windows makes this other 
thing the default sound device, you are back to square one again.    In 
my case, I have '"speakers" selected under the jaws menu, so  even if 
windows grabs some other device  and makes it the default, jaws still 
stays on the speakers.

This has been the only problem I've had with Win 7 over the past year.
