The simple rule that seems to work for me is plug in the headset before starting/waking parallels and suspend parallels before disconnecting the headset.
And yes I wish some one had been able to tell me this before I tried to get things running, it was an experiment when I did it.

Hi Lurk
Reading with interest this post and appreciate your insights here. I am close to buying Dragon Naturally Speaking (as opposed to MacSpeech - their recent blog traffic has been deteriorating alarmingly) for a new Macbook Pro with Parallels for a quadriplegic patient and wanted to weigh in on this discussion.
I understand this is not an ideal solution (using a virtual PC emulation) but the stability and user friendliness of Macs makes me feel that this could be more appropriate than the PC route which requires more system expertise.
Seeing that you have expressed satisfaction in this configuration, would you be open to posting your specifications of this installation and any extra thoughts/problems on this?
Many thanks, DaveMacG
