Unfortunately, with my older vintage gear, I had really enjoyed the
convenience of the remote control volume control.  To use this, I had
turned the gain up on my preamp so that if the volume on the Squeezebox
was maxed, I'd be using nearly all the 200 watt per channel output of my
McIntosh 2205 power amp.  

Therefore, if the Squeezebox has this electronic brain fart, the
potential for equipment damage still exists.  The only work-around -
defeat the SB3 volume control and go back to the old fashioned way of
getting up, walking over, and turning up/down the volume.
