SYMPTOMS
When you change the playback volume level on an ESS 1887 sound card and then restart your computer, the playback volume level may return to its original setting.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the ESS Record Waveout volume control saves its volume level information in the registry last, overwriting the standard Windows volume control information.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, use the Record Waveout volume control to adjust both playback and record volume settings.
