After installing VMware Fusion Version 2.0 (116369), and Windows Xp, the sound icon shows up and stays there in the desktop. The volume also want to use only the silence mode. When i want to pump up the volume, and let go the slider, the volume goes back to zero again.

How can i let this disappear?

At the momment i' am behind another computer. I found these Keyboard Shortcuts.

Alt/Option + SHIFT + Volume Up/Volume Down.

I think i've tried this already. Can you pleace give me a hint?

On Vmware i also installed Xp. Is it possible it has something to do with the virtual souncard?

Or is there a more logical explanation for it?
