Final Cut Express 4 audio problem

I have Final Cut Express 4 running on an iMac with Leopard 10.3.5.

The problem I have is I cannot hear a music track & the sound track on the film clip at the same time when I run the clip. I only hear the clip sound track until it finishes then the music track plays. If I drag the scrubber bar along the time line I can hear both the music & the Clip sound track together. This only happens when I logon to the Mac as an Administrator. (I have never managed to hear both sound tracks together whilst logged on as Administrator.)

In desperation I created a user account on my iMac. If I logon as a user Final Cut Express 4 works ok – I hear both sound tracks together when I play the clip.

Any ideas how I can make the Administrator account work as the User account does? As the iMac is only used by myself I don’t need any user accounts.

Got any Quicktime plug-ins specific to that Admin user account that could be interfering with audio playback? Perian? Flip4Mac? DiVX?
 
Hi, Thanks for your reply. I'm new to the world of Mac's. I do have Quicktime on my Mac - any ideas how to check if any audio plug-ins are interfering with the audio?

Thanks, John Hutchinson
