In that case it would seem that there is something a bit peculiar about that MP3.
To confirm that, let's make sure that you are able to import a standards compliant MP3. Download this test tone and see if it will import. It's just a 10 second beep (it's quite loud):

There's a few possibilities of where the problem lies.
Do you get the same error in Audacity if you move the file to your Desktop, and then import it from there?

I rarely use Windows, but can't you use "Alt + Tab" to cycle through all open windows?

I get the track note but no wording in the label. Does your project already have some labels? If it does, then the label index number will not be correct in SetLabel:Label= "0" Text="Hello" If you're using "pipe_test.py", you will need to escape the double quotes: &quo...

I can tell you what that looks like - it looks like the microphone switching on.

I'm not sure what you can do about it. Perhaps check that your power settings are set to "always on" for everything (including USB).

Do you absolutely need VB-Cable? We've had quite a few reports of strange problems like this when VB-Cable is installed (not necessarily being used, just running in the background appears to be enough to cause problems for some).

When you first attempted to open the project, I'm guessing that you got an error message about missing data files. What did you do after that error message?
