Avid CoreAudio Manager: Not Connected (HW not found)

Protools HD Native (PCI) + Avid hd I/O

Protools 11.1.2 + 10.3.8.

Mac Pro 5.1

OSX 10.8.5.





Since this morning Core audio manager has crashed when I first open any application that uses it. After that is opens without a crash but status is "Not Connected (HW not found). This has happened before, very rarely, but rebooting has always fixed it. Now it doesn´t!



I have tried these steps with no success:



- Rebooting mac (4-5 times)

- Trashing core audio prefs

- repairing permissions

- downloaded and installed 11.1.3.



Protools works just fine, so the hardware is not the problem. It´s just Core audio manager that seems to be unable to find my hardware.



I work mainly with Logic Pro, so right now I am unable to work! Any help would be highly appreciated!



UPDATE: After rebooting I am able to manually open the coreaudio manager, and it says it´s connected. But even then if I open any client it crashes. And once it has crashed it can´t find HW no matter what. Frustrating! This problem appeared from nowhere, I haven´t installed anything in few days!
