P755-S5269 volume control makes loud annoying BEEPS with each press to change volume or mute

I'm having an issue with the volume contol on my P755-S5269 making loud beeps when I adjust the volume.
It may have seemed sensable to make a noise which is indicative of the volume you might expect to hear when playing media however it seems to be the same LOUD BEEP VOLUME with each press of the - or + volume control.
I find that this is especially annoying when adjusting the volume at lower levels as it overrides whatever media is being played with FULL VOLUME BEAPING for each press to adjust the volume. This happens both with the speakers or with headphones and it seems like a poor design choice that hopefully can be controled through software or BIOS.
This LOUD BEEP also happens when toggling the mute button to silent wich seems especially rude when trying to ensure a silent laptop session.
Any suggestions would be appreciated otherwise I guess I'll have to use the workaround avoid the hardware control and only use the windows volume slider.

And after a little exploration, I found how you can turn the beep off completely. Go to Control Panel/Sound/Sounds Tab/Scroll to Default Beep and Select it/In Sounds box below is probably "Windows Ding"/Click on drop down arrow in the box/Scroll to top and select "None"/Apply/OK. Whew!!! Result--No more beep when you adjust volume with the regular sliders.

My ipad2's volume is really loud and has some static even when the volume is down below half. Is my speaker blown and can it be repaired?

The volume is so loud and full of static even at low volume settings. I think the speaker might be blown. I had no volume for a couple of days the I powered it of let it set over night and turned it on the next day. Now the volume is super loud and I am afraid the speaker is blown or going to any time now. Is there an easy fix to this or do I have to send it in for repairs? I have only had this ipad since Christmas.

To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
1. Go to Settings
2. Tap on General
3. Tap on Reset
4. Tap on Reset All Settings

Hey. I've lost the volume control for my Inspire T5400. Is it possible in any way to "hack" it to make the volume on the loudest? I dont have to be able to lower the volume.. I'll just do that on my pc.
Thanks

Dear Altenbach,
The VI that you have posted in (Max8Discard.vi) in Limiting Input String Length
limits the entry of string control to required length but it doesnt limit the entry of special characters.
If you have any simple way to do the same it will be very helpful
Thanks in advance...!!!

Just change the check after the Lexical Class function. If you just want numbers and letters, then use the In Range & Coerce function to check for class numbers 3 through 5. Play around with the logic some more until you get what you need (I'm thinking that AND should be an OR).

Volume control when using front row with an external audio interface

Hi,
I got my macbook last week, and so far, I love it. But I've got a small gripe with FrontRow - in my room at college, I have my macbook plugged into an oldish Tascam US-122, which I use a lot for recording. The Tascam is connected to my expensive active speakers, and ideally, I'd like to be able to play back via FrontRow to the Tascam, to the speakers, while retaining remote control. This isn't a problem for selecting Photos/Videos/Music etc, but the problem arises when I want to change the volume - the remote simply controls the volume of the macbook's internal speakers, not affecting the output of the Tascam.
I know I could just connect the speakers via the headphone output, but that would mean more cables, and more chopping and changing system preferences to suit whether I'm making music or just listening.
*So - is there any way at all that I can make the macbook's global volume control (using the volume hotkeys and remote) affect the signal its sending (via USB) to the Tascam?* I know its not impossible, because until recently I used it with a PC running XP, and that allowed me to use the volume control app to boost or cut the Tascam's volume. Perhaps its an issue with the Tascam's OSX driver?
The Tascam has its own physical volume knob, so its not like I'm stuck listening at deafening or very quiet volumes, and I know this sounds like an issue with my laziness rather than FrontRow or the macbook, but surely it defeats the point of FrontRow if I have to walk across the room every time I want to turn the tunes up or down?!
Any help would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
Thom Bishop

hmm, yeah, thats kinda what i suspected - i reckon this is to do with the way the frontrow interface is set up, but theres no way (as far as i can see) to make everything pass through the main system stereo channel BEFORE going to an external audio interface... which is COMPLETELY bizarre, since system sounds/alerts get passed to the audio interface fine.
and no, i very much doubt whether ANY external audio interface would respond to apple remote (gap in the market, perhaps?).
this would be a fairly simple problem to solve, if only apple were aware of it... of course, i COULD try getting to grips with audio units and seeing if i couldnt fix it myself, but ive frankly not got the time to learn how that works! how can i make apple aware of this issue?? are they already aware??

Volume Control on Satellite Pro A200 with Ubunutu 7.10

I have a Satellite Pro A200GE-1F9 which I have recently made dual boot with Vista and Ubuntu 7.10. This is the first time I have used Linux and most things are going well so far.
However, the volume control (a scroll wheel on the front of the laptop) is not controlling the volume correctly with Ubuntu, instead of increasing the volume smoothly as with Vista it increases in jumps of an 1/8th of maximum volume, the on-screen volume control is still smooth. I believe this is at least partly due to the change from a hardware volume wheel, as with all the past Toshiba's I have used, to a software based version. This controls the system volume and turns continuously, not stopping at the minimum or maximum volumes.
Does anyone know of a way to change this jumping volume change to a smooth one?
Thanks for any help

Hi there,
since no one here has any clue nor drivers nor any information about the driver support from toshiba, no one will be able to give you some useful information.
Did you already googled and checked the ubuntu forums? I think that will bring you nearer to the source instead of here.
So just begin asking in the ubuntu forums because I think that someone is out there which perhaps has the same problem like you.
Hopefully hes some kind of programmer. ;)

No Volume Control For DDL & DTS Connect with XtremeMusic under Win7

? I have an X-Fi XtremeMusic PCI card with Windows 7 (32-bit).
I'm using the latest SB X-Fi XtremeMusic drivers for Win7 including hotfix.
I've installed "Dolby Digital Li've & DTS Connect" and it works fine under Windows 7 32-bit, except for one thing. I totally lose software control of volume in Windows when in digital DTS/DD mode. No matter what I set volume level at, it is always sounds?the same (probably max). The only way to control it is manually at my receiver box. If I don't use DTS or Digital Dolby, I can control volume just fine (even in the classic digital PCM mode). My default playback device?under "Manage Audio Devices"?is the?SB X-Fi speakers. However I've tried every combination possible in the audio control panels and nothing will get that volume to work right. So this appears to be a bug in either the digital addon pack or the drivers for Win7. Can anyone else confirm this or possibly have a fix?

K This shouldn't be the case. There's no reason why it can't handle volume control before encoding it into the DD/DTS?signal. PCM digital?works fine with volume. So the problem is somewhere with the addon pack. I have another computer which outputs Dobly Digital and volume is no problem on it. Of course it doesn't use a SoundBlaster.

Computer "beeps" with each midi event. Any ideas?

I have GarageBand 08. I'm using a small M-Audio keyboard via USB connection to a MacPro. Audio output of the computer goes out to a home stereo system. I hear sound fine from the keystroke through the stereo system. Problem is, that with each input from the midi keyboard (including the pitch bend and modulation wheels), I hear a little beep from the CPU. It's kind of crazy-making. Any idea what this is and how to stop it?

WAIT! I figured it out. It was caused by the Audio MIDI setup application. I had enabled Test Setup when I plugged in the keyboard, but had not turned it off when I started GarageBand. So every keystroke was being "tested" and producing that nice little beep. I'll leave this here in case anyone else has this problem.

Loud annoying static with itunes playback

I turned on my computer one day and decided to play a song and I got this really loud harsh static whenever I play a song. I know it's not my speaker cause I tested the same audio files on other audio programs and they played fine...Anyone else have this problem and how can I fix this? I tryed reinstalling already and nothing changed...help pls
PC Windows XP Pro

Thx for the help Shadow98233 But that didn't seem to fix the problem but you did show me my stupidity. I tryed to install an updated version of quicktime over an old one and it was not compatible. Causing it to produced this violently annoying static buzz when you play audio files. So I had to uninstall quicktime completely before upgrading. Thanks for your help.

Loud continuous beeping With Garageband and my MIXER.

I Just got a Peavey PV 8 USB Mixer with 2 MXL 990 Phantom powered condenser mics.
Every time I connect my Mixer and open garage band there's a long continuous beep in the backround. No matter what I do I cannot drown it out. I've disabled the Audio MIDI Set up. I've gone into my preferences and disabled the internal mic and speakers and still nothing. The strange thing is that the mixer is fine if I have GarageBand shut down. But as soon as it even gets to the new project window The beeping starts again. Someone please help me.

I had this same problem, exact same problem!
After googling for hours for an answer, I decided to just call up Peavey.
Come to find out the PV6 USB Mixer is only outputting 15v of Phantom Power. Most quality condenser mics need 48v.
I asked him why did I see on the box and read online that the PV6 USB said it had 48v phantom power.
To which he replied, "Only the Non-USB PV6 has 48v of Phantom Power."
LAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To fix this problem you would have to buy an external Phantom Power Supply
Like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XUUXB8/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&p sc=1
It is only $20
Hope this helps!

Digital audio ouput - why no volume control??

This is a problem that has been around for a while (ie. pre-Leopard).
Why is there *no global volume control* when using digital audio output? This includes the inability to mute the output as well as adjust the volume with either the keyboard or the apple remote.
It is *particularly annoying* with Leopard's Front Row as music is not being played via iTunes anymore so I can't use the iTunes volume control...
Please fix this Apple, it can't be that hard. There is no logical reason for disabling volume control for digital outpu!
Thanks,

It IS possible, actually and its omission makes no sense.
Yes, it is possible but it isn't desirable. Here's why:
For any linear digital audio encoding process, the bit depth determines the resolution of the volume levels the format can reproduce. For example, for 16 bit audio there are 65536 possible volume levels between dead silent & the absolute maximum possible level (digital clipping). For 24 bit audio there are about 16.7 million levels.
So let's say that you want to turn down the volume at the digital output. The only way to do this is by throwing away all of those levels louder than the desired volume by scaling the output to what is effectively a lower bit depth. One half as loud means the most significant bit ("MSB") will never be a one; half that loud & the next MSB won't be used, & so on.
At first, this doesn't seem so bad but the problem is the human ear doesn't interpret "one half as loud" as you might think: hearing is logarithmic (which is why we usually use the logarithmic unit "dB" to measure it), so a sound that is 1/2 the intensity of maximum is only slightly quieter to the ear. Depending on the maximum level the digital input device can produce, it could easily be necessary to scale the digital output to one ten thousandth or less of the maximum output just to achieve a comfortable level, & to scale it much smaller still for background music levels.
So, for an effective volume control with a usable range from "very quiet" to "full tilt" you would really be going from "miserably inadequate resolution" to "high quality resolution."
If you want to hear just how miserable sounding the quiet settings would be, & you have any sound editing software that can change digital volume levels of samples, try this:
Select a short sample & reduce it by 40 dB. Save it & then renormalize that saved sample to full scale. Listen to the result & compare it to the original. Not too pleasant, is it?

Change default iPod Shuffle Start volume so its Louder

Hi
I use my Shuffle to Run with using my own headphones. This is fine but the default volume on the shuffle is too quiet (I think its on about 70%?)
If I use the apple headphones, they fall out of my ears. If I use mine, its too quiet and I cant turn it up. Is there any way to tell my shuffle via my computer using iTunes to default to a louder volume?
I was thinking about buying one of those volume controls that you can use with your own headphones but as I only listen to podcasts while I run I am happy without controls so long as I can make it play at 100% volume using my own headphones.
Thanks

Sorry, but the answer is NO. Max volume for shuffles sold in EU is lower
than those sold in US and most countries outside the EU...
You CAN, however, adjust the volume of each podcast or all podcasts
in your playlist by selecting them, then doing Get Info>Options...

HT201401 volume control increases on its own

volume control goes loud without touching it. anyone have this issue?

Maybe try and let the iPod sit in a sealed container of rice for a few days to continue drying out. It might not hurt to then connect the Nano to iTunes and restore it to factory settings.
Restoring iPod to factory settings
Otherwise, it's likely that the moisture has caused some internal component(s) to short circuit. In that case you'll need to have the iPod serviced/replaced eith by Apple or a third party repair company.

Mapping Alsa Volume Control for USB SoundCard (C-Media 650)

Hello everyone who is interested in helping me solve my volume control problem!
Lets see, I have sound playback working, currently I am listening to some Foo Fighters mp3s in XMMS using the Alsa plugin, so I can't complain too much.
However, volume control doesn't work. If I set the alsa plugin to use software volume control, then I have volume control but its not ideal and it doesn't help me when I'm not using xmms. When I run alsamixer or open the gnome volume control, I have multiple volume controls for the "Speaker" device. The 1st pair of volume controls do nothing, I can mute them and my music keeps playing... no idea what they're controlling. The 2nd pair ("Speaker 1") DOES control the sound volume. I just need to find a way to remap it or something so I can configure my applications/tray icon/etc to use it. (And preferabbly not the other 6 channels)
In the Gnome sound control, the devices are:
"Speaker" - stereo control that doesn't do anything
and "Speaker 1" - a 7.1 channel (8 sliders) with the first two controlling front left and right sound for my stereo speakers.
I've tried setting xmms to use "speaker 1", but the option is not in the drop-box, tried typing it manually but that didnt work.
I set my tray icon to control "speaker 1" but the sliders don't seem to lock properly and the volume just jumps around, unlocking the channels and not staying balanced or scaling with the slider.
The only way to get the volume to change as expected is to open the gnome volume manager, make sure the channels of "Speaker 1" are UNLOCKED and slide the first 2 sliders to the desired volume.
So I was thinking if I could just remap the first two channels of "speaker 1" to something else using an alias or link or editing asound.state (which just confused me) for example, then I could use my alias to control the sound in my applications. Thanks for any help with this!

Thanks again!

Some other observations that may be helpful (and, hopefully, get closer to the heart of the problem)...
(1) Whenever VLC is playing audio (as mentioned in previous post, it is only application that works in desired manner), it will show up in Kmix's "Playback Streams" tab. Whenever Wine and Firefox are playing, they do NOT show up in the "Playback Streams" tab.
(2) Kmix will not allow more than one open application to grab the UA-5 sound (e.g. If I open Firefox and play audio, stop playing audio (while leaving Firefox open), then open VLC and try to play audio, VLC will not play audio (unless Firefox is closed)). This is likely a related problem to the problem outlined in the previous post, but it might not be. If it isn't, I'll take advice on how to let KMIX grab multiple audio sources simultaneously on the same sound card.
Thanks for reading!
