Pro Tools could not initialize the current playback device

I've been greeted by this a few times:

Pro Tools could not initialize the current playback device. Please make sure that the device has een configured correctly.

It happens if I've used my M-Audio device when last using Pro Tools 9 then later try to use it with Core Audio.

Any idea how to stop this?

Trashing the file Library>Preferences>com.digidesign.ProTools.plist worked when I first got this, but now it doesn't.
