When I play a CD or DVD on my Toshiba WinXP Home Edition computer, the
volume is insufficient. On checking the volume control screen I find that
the sliders for CD volume and balance slide properly and if I click on mute,
it shows a checkmark. But, the volume and balance don't change and the
sound does not mute.

The external volume wheel works fine.
The Windows Media player volume control works fine.
And, on the Volume screen, the "all" and "wave" volume, balance, and mute
functions work fine.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Your cd/dvd player is set to play audio digitally.

You were right, Merlin. Digital was checked. But, unfortunately unchecking
it didn't fix the problem.

Any other suggestions?
