Double check you Windows audio settings make sure you are using the correct sound card for WSJT-X and it is not sharing the same sound card as Windows. Make sure you have WSJT-X audio set to the Signalink sound card.
Signalink carries on Tx I am not sure what you saying. If the Tx is staying stuck on transmit you could have TX or Dly on SL set to high

Yes the tx is staying stuck on tx so i will check the tx & the dl
Also check the audio output level on the computer, the mic gain on the rig and the ALC. To get a clean signal the ALC should only come up a bar or two. A dummy load can be useful.
