Default Media Player: playing but no sound's getting through

Hi!

Need help!

Portable connected via usb to external speakers. All sounds are heard, fine.
Except from Windows Media Player:
File is playing but sound does not get to speakers.

All worked fine until now. Could this bug be caused by the playing of a
Disney Movie (yesterday), which was using it's own player? Can't find where
to modify application.

Thanks for your help.

Under WMP's Tools:Optionsevices:Speakers, is the right setting selected?

Is the WMP Mute button on?

I had the same problem too until moments ago. The mute button wasn't the
problem: it was the volume slider bar on media player. Once I cranked it,
what do you know: sound.
