Fixture Icons Dont animate when patched

I cant get a standard par can to respond to sound. I worked around this by adding the par cans to the dmx 400. I am using 20 par cans currently. It appears that only one fixture at a time may be assigned to a dmx 400 channel. To get around this limitation I patched the extra par cans to respond to one of the twelve channels assigned to the dmx 400. I enable dmx 400 to react to sound and problem solved. However the icons for the patched channels dont show the values going to the channel. I checked the output window and the patched values are going to the channel. I also checked the output window in magic 3d and the values are being transferred thru the interface The non animating of the icons is simply cosmetic, how ever the fact that the par cans won't respond to the sound to light program is more of an issue.

Thanks for letting me rant
