:x When I play VLC media player, it has to be set to 100, otherwise (over or under does not matter!!!) it goes so loud it burst my eardrums! Turning it down UNDER 100 actually turns it UP!!! anything even 99-0 it is sooo loud it hurts. :cry:

Any help in this matter would be appreciated. Thanks.

Does the same happen with other video/audio players?

Try deleting all vlc settings

Code: Select all

rm -rf ~/.config/vlc
