pwarren, that's not the proper response ! Yer spose to whine, cry, kick and complain about what a piece of **** this software is !!

As I said, I AM having this issue of sorts in Real Band as well. I can pull up an old tune, play it, and for some reason, some audio tracks just do not produce audio (not muted). Close RB, reopen and they play fine. It IS a curious issue and I was going to post it also, but as you say, it's a nuisance more than anything. I just relaunch.
