Again: Can you explain it? - Bug list? Emu?

I guess its a bug. Some of you gave me hints but I could not work 
around it.

This is what happens: 
I recorded a midi drumfile (I tried both: emgaic and cake walk, mp-7 
tempo setting in the mp-7 set to ext., the enable program change in 
channel 1 set to off) on track 1 of the mp-7. When I want to run the 
sequence, theres no sound. But the green light indicates midi events 
playing. When I change the preset of track 1 (another kit) I can hear 
the sequence. Switching back to the original kit works. I can still 
hear the sequence. When I press the stop button (no matter if once or 
twice (to go back to the very start of the sequence)) and replay the 
sequemce the sound has gone. To be precise: I turn up the volume knob 
to the max, then I can hear the sequence, but very very low, 
hardly "detectable" (can you say so?). 
Strange enough: I changed to other patterns I recorded and it 
happened the same. Befor these patterns didnt cause me any trouble. I 
somehow imported the bug just by running the sequence on  pattern x 
to pattern y. 
So: whenever I press the stop button of the mp-7 the sound is gone 
(nearly gone).
I checked the controller data: Several #94, vol. 0, but they didnt do 
any harm in other selfrecorded patterns (#94 seems to be the fx 
setting, right?). I deleted the events, still the same problem. I 
deleted the controller data on my computer, befor recording it again 
on the mp-7, same problem).
I haven“t used any multiuser setup until now, so no problem from that 
side.
Anybody who can explain it?

If you want to put it on the new bugs list, in short:
preset sound is off after pressing the stop button of the mp-7. It is 
affecting other patterns when switched to them.

Best regards
