Try to correct "DXS Playback Volume" mixer elements. The dB range of these volumes were fixed recently to the correct values. If the old mixer value is restored using the dB value, it would be restored to a much lower value, which explains your symptom. Simply set these volumes to the max (i.e. 0dB) and never change unless you really need them. thanks, Takashi
