Sound in filtering settings corrupted - [Mailmon 1.9.6]

Sorry, Dracula, I still can't get a failure. I set everything up exactly like you said (though the first time I tested was very close to this configuration, anyway), but no dice. Here's what hapens for me:

I change my filter settings to match yours, then open up my email client (Outlook) and send myself an email with the offending subject line. Then I close Outlook and tell Mail Monitor to "check mail now". It displays the animated icon for about half a second or so, then it returns to my default icon. No sound is played, and when I check the sound setting in the dialog box, everything is exactly as I left it; none of the setting are corrupted.
