Digi Core Audio Manager Lion

When I click on the Digi Core Audio icon, I get a window that says: 'Digi Core Audio Manager HW in use'. This window allows me to quit Digi Core Audio, but the problem remains when I re-try. The only remedy is to shut down both the computer and the Digi 002. Then, I power up the Digi 002 first, and 10 seconds later power up the mac.

I am quite sure (but now in doubt.) that the drivers were installed when i installed protools on my mac. Went to digidesign website and they say the same (that it should be like this). Unfortunatelly, when i open the 'digi core audio manager' it says nothing clear; only states the hardware is connected, its channels and buffer size. Getting started with mbox 2 4 hard disk storage space mono audio tracks recorded with 16-bit resolution at 44.1 khz cd quality require approximately 5 mb of hard disk space per minute. Because the mbox 2 is a native core audio device, any macintosh application will happily play via the unit without requiring the old digidesign core audio manager.

Guys ~ not only am I only scratching the surface with the Axe FX, I just got my Digidesign 003 rack set up too. Running through a Mac OSx system.
Question - How come I cannot get the same volume out of my active monitors when the Axe is plugged into the Digi 003 rack with the monitors plugged in the main monitor outs of the Digi? If I want some background music running through the Digi off of itunes or other media and want to play the Axe through the same set of monitors, seems I should be able to do that with all these widgets. But, not...
I know, RTFM. Working on that too. Seems there should be some way to input the Axe to play through the monitors, record, have recorded music playing back through the 003 rack at the same time. I am wanting to just leave the whole kit rigged this way and not have to rewire to do different tasks. Do I need a line mixer to do all this? Got one of those too if needed.
Thx,
Steve (not a tweaker!)
