Thanks Ciaran, I created a simple demo with which to prove you wrong (or so I thought), but everything worked as expected! Then I realised what I had done wrong; I had a VB Script passing a variable to an AudioVB script (doh!). The two of them don't seem to communicate properly. Changing all my scripts to VBScript solves the problem.
