When I do this, all sounds are either raised or lowered. It is still strange that the background sounds are louder than the JAWS. Thanks.

I don't think that this is a problem with your sound bar, To me it sounds as though the jaws speech volume is low. That is why other sounds are loud while jaws speech can hardly be heard. There is a command to adjust the jaws speech volume. I am sorry that I cannot tell you how to do it. But I bet that if you googled jaws speech volume you could find it. Good luck with this problem. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Richard Hamel Sent: Sunday, July 13, 2014 1:05 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Another "sounds" problem. I have done this and seems that both the right and left are at the same levels. On my earlier post, I mentioned that originally my volume level was around 3-5 and now, I have to have it up to 13 or so in order to hear JAWS. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi all, I have 15.0 and Win 7. I never got a reply on my problem with my speakers in that the “sound bar” now has a muffled sound, especially with JAWS. It does not appear to have the problem when playing music. My new observation is that the computer sounds, I.e. beeps etc., are much louder than the JAWS’ voice, instead of being the background. By the way, my sound bar/speaker is announced as “Real Tech digital output optical”. And, I am using “Eloquence”. Thanks for the help.
