Vegas Pro 22 does not get along with Sound Forge Pro 18

I wasn't sure where to post, but since the issue is with Vegas, I posted here.

I am having an issue when i use VP22 (last build) with Sound Forge Pro 18. The audio I am editing is not linked to my VP22 project, but I do insert it in my VP22 project when I'm done. At any rate while I'm busy editing my audio, if I click back into Vegas, the program is frozen solid.

There's no reliability entry when this happens as Vegas just freezes solid.

I don't know why it would matter, but the audio I would be editing is 24 bit 48kHz wav audio recorded on my Tascam digital recorder.

Two questions:

1. After flipping back to VP22, is there a blue spinning wheel?

2. If yes, how long on VP's timeline is the entire project?

If a lengthy project, flipping back to VP (any version) from any other program or browser has long caused a delay in VP doing whatever it is doing while the blue spinning wheel occurs - the longer the project the longer the delay. The best way to avoid the delay is to go to Preferences/General and uncheck 'Close media files when not the active application' - the downside of this being that linking to other programs from VP won't work unless the 'Close media ..' checkbox is checked again.

if this is not the issue, perhaps a more detailed step-by-step description of the process would be helpful.
