Hello,
With Beta 2 everything was fine.
I reinstalled and now the volume is really too low.
I have a Gigabyte GA-EP45T-UD3LR which uses an ALC888.
In setting--System--Audio out I use analog Out. 2.1 (corresponding to my speakers) and Boost on.
Any idea?

Counting on both of you being able to get a console, pls paste the output of "cat /proc/cmdline, then run "setAlsaVolumes". Check volumes again.

a obvious one, but I've noticed the default xbmc volume is sometimes set low - have you tried hitting + on the keyboard or your remote?

Offhand, is there an elegant way of forcing setAlsaVolumes NOT to run. It always turns on my IEC loopback, which effectively shuts down sound on my card. Right now, I simply comment that command out of the init scripts, but every time I upgrade, I have to go back in and remove it again. It would be nice if I could set some parameter that won't be overwritten on an upgrade and I could just forget about it.
No worries if it can't be done, I'll just have to keep removing it.

I just tested on amy asrock ION 330 over spdif.
The sound seem ok, what was strange that from scratch the nav sound was pretty loud but the movie volume was almost down 0. Worked fine to increase movie volume.

Anyone know how to fix this? If not I'll probably go back to beta 2 for now.

Had audio issues w/ Betas 1/2 with Acer Revo 1600 and was going to give up til gen release but gave Beta 3 another shot. No problem install. Woot TeamXBMC.
However yes general volume is way way too low?! :S I also wish the default gain was middle of adjustment bar vs already maxed. I'd like the ability to decrease AND increase volume as needed not just decrease.
Don't have HDMI so currently using phono jack on Revo w/ DVI until eventual tv upgrade. But Camelot woulds just fine on Revo all things considered so hopefully Dharma will to.
