A couple of thoughts spring to mind about what I'd try. This might or might not fix your problem.

1) If you are running ASIO as your audio driver, for the moment, change back to MME. (Opt. >> Midi/Audio driver setup)

2) Make sure that MIDI Mapper is not selected as the MIDI output driver.

3) From the "Synthesizer / Soundcard" drop-down menu, select your soundcard (or "Synth Card Not Listed" if you can't find your particular soundcard there.

4) Do not click on GM2 yet.

5) Exit BIAB and restart it.

6) Go back into Midi / Audio driver setup and select "Audio Settings" and then "Edit Plugin Settings".

7) Click on the "Synth Track" tab and double-check that Forte is installed in the top slot.

8) Close Coyote Forte.

9) Keep clicking OK until you are back at the Midi / Audio driver setup box.

10) See if you can put a checkmark in "Use VST/DXi Synth" and, if you can, then select "General Midi 2" under "GM2 Support".

11) You shouldn't need to, but at this point, I'd click OK and then restart BIAB.
