HI, Mike,
I just checked out the sound on one of my LCs, also running 7.1. The
behavior of the system I checked is consistent with your description. I
needed to use amplified (powered) speakers to get a significant sound
volume. Have you tried powered speakers? Also, be sure that the sound port
contacts are clean and that the plug for the speakers is clean. Good luck.
