Twice now, I've found the playback sound levels on my laptop's internal speakers to be very low after an OS install no matter what I tried. Then after using Audacity to record from my stereo system via external (USB) soundcard. The playback levels on the machine's speakers have suddenly become 'normal' and stayed there through reboots, distro upgrades, etc. OS: Fedora 9,10 Alsa: 1.0.21 Pulseaudio: 0.9.14 HTH Martin
