[MV] "microphone may not be connected" error message in ViaVoice

[Ric Barline]

I used (past tense) ViaVoice for OS 10.3 with 10.4.0 and it worked  
great. After I updated to 10.4.1 I now get the error message stating  
that my microphone may not be connected. My mic is fine, as confirmed  
by Apple System Profiler, Sound Preferences, and Speech Prefs, so  
this has got to be something deep within Tiger. So far the ScanSoft  
support site (http://knowledgebase.scansoft.com/family.asp) only  
refers to Tiger incompatibility issues in the following way:

"ViaVoice for Mac OS X and Simply Dictation for Mac OS X were  
released prior to the release of the new Macintosh operating systems,  
Mac OS 10.3 (Panther), OS 10.4 (Tiger). Testing is currently being  
done with these new operating systems and a few compatibility issues  
have been found. As additional information becomes available it will  
be posted here."

I have tried everything including uninstalling the application  
completely, for all users, and also trashing all residual preference  
files, then reinstalling ViaVoice.

I am using ViaVoice 10.3 on a Cube running 10.4.1. Like I said, until  
the upgrade from 10.4.0 ViaVoice worked just fine.
