------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-11 18:04 ------- I _do_ have a Game Theater XP. I'm looking at it right now, it's got "Game Theater XP" written on it ;-) I did update to the new kernel and that definitely improved things a lot but the other problems still stand. KMix volume control applet does not control the volume. The mixer controls sure look duplicated to me, I have two master volume controls for example. The volume slider is really odd too because from 0% to about 60% there is absolute silence, then sliding up from 60 to 99% seems like an exponential increase in volume and there's some really bad distortion at about 95%. But to be honest, I'll accept what you say about KMix because my bigger problem is the choppiness and stuttering of mp3 playback using XMMS. If I alt+tab from one window to another the playback invariably stutters then jumps. In one of my earlier posts I said on switching to the (black-listed) OSS driver most of the problems went away. On 9.0, everything just worked (really!).

Volume is very low and when playing anything it crackles a lot and there is a lot of hiss. I tried adjusting volume in mixer but I couldn't get sound to normal. Sound worked just fine in Beta 3.
