I can confirm this happened to me some time ago with Logic Pro. Exact
same symptons: would play one note for about half a second, drive was
not fragmented, repaired permissions etc. If I remember correctly I
trashed every Logic preference I could find, and maybe even
re-installed Logic too. Hasn't happened since then.
