fluffy69 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I've installed Mac OS X 10.4.7. the soundchip on my mainboard is the c-media 9739a chipset. the chipset should be compatible to the ac97 v.2.2 specifications. my problem lies within volume control. i can hear the sound and i can adjust the volume within applications such as itunes and quicktime BUT everytime i adjust the global volume settings theres no effect. the volume indicator fades in and indicates that the sound is lowered or raised but there is effect. the volume stays the same. has anyone had the same experience or does anyone know a solution to my problem?

domino Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 - What happens if you adjust the global volume in the sound preferences? - Is this a brand new install? - Which installer did you use? Edit: better add my own sound card. I'm using Realtek ALC650 6-Channel sound output with SPDIF input/output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluffy69 Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 i used a 1.4.6 installer and then upgraded with the jas 10.4.7 upgrader. the global volume setting in the system preferences doesn't work either. and yes. its a fresh installation.

domino Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Hmm, and you haven't installed anything like iTunes mod, FrontRow? I'm facing the same problem on this 10.4.7. However, I can change the global volume in SysPref. I haven't gotten to the root of the problem since it's been about 6 months since my last OS X re-install. I seem to remember the toolbar volume control used to work 3 months ago. It must be something I've installed or tweaked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQuantumByte Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Sound controller is not patched. Not there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domino Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Just posting back to say that my menu bar volume control works. just a bit strange that it wasn't working 4 days ago and now out of nowhere it's working. The only explanation I have is that some other 3rd party application was taking control of global volume level. Maybe it was the keyboard volume controller I removed the other day.
