[Elecraft] K3 - MKII

Ugh, you're using Windows XP which is a total wildcard dealing with
audio.  Any other application in the computer can cause problems
for the DVK.

Windows XP allows any application to hijack the sound card settings.
You "grabbed" control back by reselecting the sound card.

Windows XP is unsuported by Microsoft and microHAM no longer provides
direct support for its software on XP.  I strongly recommend upgrading
to Windows 7 at a minimum.
