John, thanks for the hint. I'll certainly be giving that a try in the
near future (possibly today).
Took a brief look last night, using the USB input and only the input
tab shows "monitor" items, but not the output tab. And I'm not sure that
my analog input jacks on the computer are working, or at least I've never
been able to get them to work (hence the USB audio thingie), though I'll
take another whack at it and see if I can see what you describe.
Thanks forthe idea!
