Whether amaroK (or any other application) plays a sound file (your music) or |
| 15 |
the system plays a sound file (system notifications) doesn't matter, it *is* |
| 16 |
the same source. So the same volume settings apply. No way around that. |

You can, though, control amaroK's volume to a certain extent in amaroK itself. |
| 19 |
Try to put amaroK's internal control to 100% and drop PCM a bit lower. It |
| 20 |
might help though I doubt it will help much. (Don't know for sure because I |
| 21 |
don't use system notifications.) |
