Yes, seen them, though would never logically associate a switch called
"external amplifier" with toggling the output mode of some socket.  I
might imagine it changing whether a master volume level controlled one
thing or another.  Or that a sound board with an in-built power amp for
driving speakers might toggle between speaker-out or line-out.  It's a
strange name, and the lack of explanatory documentation doesn't help.

Test running FC6 & FC5, and still using FC4.
I delete all private mail, unseen.  I read from the list.
