In sonar go to the options menu and select: Audio -->advance. and from the list select the "Asio" driver, then you'll have a new midi output (synthe sw...) select it to have a sound while playing MIDI files.

Midi is data only, there is no actual sound to the midi tracks themselves. They need to be assigned to either a software synth or an external synth to actually make the sounds you want to hear.
For instance if you load a demo of a midi sequance you will need to add a software synth such as the TTS-1 or Roland sound canvas which are general midi compatable and will play the instruments sounds assigned to the demo's midi channels. Use the Synth Rack feature in Sonar to open one of them. Then you will need to assign the output of each of the midi tracks to that particular synth and you will get sound. Make sure to assing the synth's audio track to you UA-25 as its audio output.
I would suggest reading in the manual and following the tutorials included in the manual to get yourself familier with how this is all done.
You have to go in to the Sonar configuration and select what the default MIDI and WAV input and output devices are. That is usually handled by the ASIO driver. In your case you would select the USB mic for input, and for output you need to select your sound card. For midi you need to configure the midi controllers and the software synth or soft instrument you are using. If you need any more detailed help I need to know what version of Sonar LE it is and what sound card. I am guessing it detected the mic and just needs the output device configured as I mentioned.

It's probably your computer, more specifically the type of application you're running it on/in. Also, when you install or fiddle with the settings, you have to be careful because it can be so confusing fixinfg them.
ok..try this open control panel->click on sounds and audio devices...click on advanced button->If your midi volume control is shown..make sure it is not muted and the midi volume is high..If it is not shown..then click on options->properties ->tick the midi box and close the window..then adjust the MIDI volume..I hope this helps Regards, VJ
Microsoft re-engineered the audio bus for Windows. HD Audio is hardware specific, in the sense that specific drivers have to be written to make a piece of hardware compatible with it. Roland is not writing a driver for the UA 25 because they want you to buy an UA 25EX. Get my drift? The UA 25 uses Kernel Streaming, the old way, which exists in parallel, sort of, with the HD Audio bus. But the new ways are always prioritized over the old ways in software, so there is bus contention (glitching).
To fix this there are a few things you can try:
1) Roll back to SP2. SP3 implements the HD Audio bus, so don't use that implementation. If your laptop has an HD audio sound card then I doubt it would work, but your UA 25 would.
2) Try ASIO 4 ALL. This fixed everything but glitching in VST instruments.
3) Reduce the amount of stuff your computer is doing. Optimize your OS by turning off the cute shaded windows and desktops and various processes that you don't need to see or use. There are sites for this. This increases available RAM, CPU time, etc.
4) Video hardware acceleration, sometimes, would fix bugs in software left in by not so clever programmers.
4) You can always just give-up and go along with the bastards and buy new stuff and toss the old stuff.
Celeron CPU's will struggle with making music and limit what you can do with audio.
Celerons are ok to play music but nor really for making music.
Firewire is a better option for making music as it's really fast unlike USB.
An option would be to get a faster CPU and try the soundcard again.
But i would not use USB audio and would use an Audiophile 2496 soundcard as they are really cheap.
Also midi is data and not audio, midi just works virtual instruments and is able to control keyboards through midi out.
But first try a better CPU as a celeron isant that good for makign music.
I know becouse i've been there done that and go really upset with the same problems your having at the moment.
I played the midi files on cuabse and recorded it onto an audio chanel.
