Audio/Video Options Empty and Unavailable

[swarmer]

Under the "Audio and Video" category in Options, the boxes for Device, Input,
Codec, and Format are empty for Audio. Codec and Format are also grayed out.
This is the same for video: Device and Profile are also empty and grayed out.

The Tuning Wizard is also grayed out.

My audio drivers work fine, and I can record by manually adjusting the
properties in the Sound Control Panel. There are two problems with this:
1) My purpose in OneNote is to record the WaveOut (not microphone), so it is
a hassle to manually switch the input device in the control panel when I want
to use the microphone for other applications (which is often).
2) The sound quality is really bad. I compared the microphone sound, and
also the WaveOut sound recorded in OneNote with the same settings recorded in
Sound Recorder. OneNote's quality is very low and unusable.

I am using Windows Vista Home Premium. The sound driver is Conexant High
Definition Audio.

Thanks for any help!

Nevermind. It magically works now. Apparently, if I go to the options from
the Tools menu, it appears. But if I go there from the Audio and Recording
Toolbar, then it does not.
