[MV] Voice Recognition Issues

[Ian Gilman]

I used to have trouble getting ViaVoice to launch, but I've found a  
workaround through much trial and error.  It's simply this: open your  
System Preferences to the Audio panel and select Input.  Then start  
ViaVoice.  Works every time for me.  Strange but true.
