M,

Enter "Tools" on the menu bar across the top of Cakewalk's opening 
page. Click on "Project Options," and then "MIDI INPUT." Disable 
"MIDI Echo," which is creating the loop back to the DTXpress module. 
Once that's done, you should be able to get the audio out of your PC. 
I'm doing this from memory; let me know if it works.
