189	Only faint sound through DART	jep	martini	"HD Audio: Realtek ALC888 / ALC888T
(But the behaviour is also present on another machine with a AOpen AW320 card with a Cirrus Logic CS4614 chip)

I've installed and tried LBMix, UniAudio Mixer PM and the built in Volume Control on my computers with eCS 2.0 GA installations done quite recently. All work quite well, except that the volume has to be set to MAX as the output is way to low. System sounds, the built in Media Player Folders with the addition of MP3 support can be heard, but higher volume ranges would be appreciated.

MPlayer, WarpVision and other applications can't emit sound other than through DART but then also only faint. 
MPlayer display ∠[││││││││......] with DART.
MPlayer display ∠[...............] if UNIAUD output has been selected ( while WarpVision crash ).

The behavior was also present when my previous ticket was fixed (#127).
