PDA w/ActiveSync

BlankI have a situation where right after a reboot, when I drop my PDA into
the
cradle I get the Windows "de-doop" audible for a USB device being found and
the ActiveSynch "bling" chime letting me know it found it as well. If I
return later, generally the next day, and drop my PDA into the cradle, I get
the Windows "de-doop" audible, but no Active-Synch "bling" chime and no
device found in ActiveSync either. The system is left on overnight and
there
are no other system issues at this point.

Obviously a reboot cures the problem, but this is not a suitable workaround.

To alleviate any hoop jumping, here are the stats:

WindowsXP SP2 w/ latest updates via WSUS on our domain network,
Latest ActiveSync 4.x

Maybe you have a firewall that starts after AS runs in the first, good case,
and blocks it thereafter. I suppose that some sort of stateful firewall or
VPN client could also cause this problem, as long as they run after the time
when your initial successful sync occurs.
