Simscape V-Belt Pulley Network

I am trying to model a pulley network with several pulleys, inertias, and so on. First I modeled it with "ideal" pulleys without slip. Then later I got some data about cable type, wrap angles and so on. I changed the belt pulley blocks to V-belt, adjusted the number of V's (to 7) and the sheave angle (39°). Then, nothing worked anymore. On some changed the pulleys would just be stuck and not turn at all (or just with a radial velocity of 1e-142 rad/s), on some tries the solver just told me to go home and canceled the simulation attempt.
I tried breaking it down, and here I am with the most basic pulley system and it´s not working:
Pulley settings are identical, other tabs in the pulley settings are untouched:
I am getting these errors:

Error:An error occurred while running the simulation and the simulation was terminated
Caused by:
Solver encountered an error while simulating model 'untitled' at time 0 and cannot continue. Please check the model for errors.
Solver could not solve the system of algebraic equations because a singular iteration matrix was encountered. Consider providing more accurate initial conditions. If the problem persists, check the model structure and values of parameters.
The tensioners are spring/damper systems with 5000 N/m and 500 N/(m/s).
Can anyone help me? I am on this for hours, and it must be so simple. I really should quit engineering and do something less depressing...
