No sound after recording
Hey, so first post here, need some help.
So, for the most part, I work with MIDI for my music, but the other day, I ended up recording a spoken vocal part for a song, and it sorta messed everything up. Since then, whenever I open up the project, no sound comes from any of the tracks, including the recorded part. Nothing is muted, and technically it shows that the sound is playing, which is weird. Odder still, if I duplicate a track, it sometimes works, and that second track actually produces some sound. Annoyingly, this doesn't work for the other project files that also load up when I open up REAPER. Another caveat to this is that certain tracks, with a particular VST instrument, reverts back to an original preset instead of what configuration was actually present when I duplicate. That might be a problem with the actual plug-in if anything.
I've been using REAPER for a few years, but I would still consider myself a layman, so if there is an easy fix, all would be appreciated.
It might also be noteworthy to know that when I restart my computer, everything goes back to normal and I can hear again.

I'd start by checking that basic settings are OK, i.e:
Windows Control Panel Sound Outlets
REAPER: Options, Preferences, Audio,Device
Master Track: Outputs (right click over volume fader)
Are all tracks routed to Master (via folders if you use them)?

Yeah everything is fine. I am starting to think it's a problem with a plugin or something since I was able to get my other projects to start working again. This particular project still has the problem, and it's the only one with this random VST that I recently got.

What's the VST? Does the project behave if you load it, after a restart, with that VST offline?

Well I suspect its either Arminator2 or STS-17. I was actually just working on a new project, and I got a lot done, and this mute thing happened again after I reloaded and I'm getting more pissed. I made copies with the tracks involving the VSTs removed, and it's still happening, so now I have no clue.
EDIT: Def is the Arminator2. Shame, was a decent free plugin

Also, if it means anything, when I open up REAPER, whenever it buffers around the "Project Complete", this situation happens.
For some reason, now the Master track says there is nothing coming, so.

Can you upload a project somewhere so we can either
a) see the issue, and maybe figure out what's going on, or
b) not see the issue, which will tell us.... something?
