Now I remember many of us struggling many years ago with the problem I'm having, usually happening with the old real player but also with some winamp output plug-ins. So I'm surprised that it's happening and I know my settings are right. Jaws is set to allow other audio and my players are no different than they've always been. But whether it's Jaws 16 or 18--the 2 I have on my windows 7 system--if I play an audio file and use Jaws, the Jaws volume goes down super low. I don't have loud volume on my media players mostly because I want to work with other programs while listening to music. But as soon as an audio file starts I can barely hear Jaws. The file stops; Jaws comes right back up to the right volume. This is a dell system with real tech high definition, and between Jaws going out and the shaky type sound of the files I don't know if it's sound card or external speakers or maybe Jaws needs repair? And it's no respecter of media players--VLC, Winamp and Windows Media Player all cause Jaws to lower volume.
Would appreciate any thoughts. Joanne
